Hollowed out, we've watched months erase the memories of years   It's not tradition, not meaningless ideals   It's a fire thats draws us near   So come close, let your eyes meet mine   Try hard to deny this burning inside   Grab hold to status quo to justify   Keep telling yourself there's nothing more to life      There's so much more than killing   Than preying on insecurity   Than getting what you want no matter whose at cost   Wake up, realize your virtue is dead   Your life conviction for vanity   But we'll take this stage, never forgetting the days    When heart meant everything   We will take the stage, holding onto the days   When heart meant everything      This time is soon to end   And all your clothes and cliques will go with it   When the dust clears we'll see that love still stands   The love that has no shame, no fronts, no fruitless games   The love that lays life down for a friend   Your time is up
