Backstory Wound This darkened Path we've walked Led us to nightmares We're unable to escape Time runs out Souls are fading In a world Built on our betrayal We saved a million lives, but there are more Just by knowing there will be a cure I can stay alive, keep going on What have I become? We saved a million lives But there are many more The world is crashing down We are blinded By deadly venom Jaws dripping With saliva In time we're born to beg and kneel Our minds are formed from ash and greed The sky opens its veins to bleed All life seems so fragile to me We saved a million lives But there are many more The world is crashing down 'Cause we think We're wearing the crown We're wearing the crown But we don't wear this heavy crown Can I hope for a better world? Or should I pray for my soon death? We saved a million lives But there are many more The world is crashing down 'Cause we think We're wearing the crown We're wearing the crown But we don't wear this heavy crown 8.
