Silver

"I've seen the face of fear, it feels so familiar So now I just smile, relief found in solemn acceptance What does it mean to be strong? Spread thin to the point of exhaustion? Reach down, it's deeper than you know What will you do when you find yourself sinking? Will it ever be enough? The strife the same since we were brothers There goes another one You think this isn't real? Well, think again A distant memory, (This is all I can remember) To what it could've been. (It doesn't really seem to matter) We're all living in denial just a little while longer And I'll still be here when gold turns into silver I think it's safe to say that we've been led astray The Earth shifts, but we still build bridges Why can't we pretend to be strong? Will we disintegrate through constant struggle? Not today if we make that decision How do we stop ourselves from permeating backwards? Is this the way that things are now? Predetermination, is any of this up to me? We're only searching for forgiveness In this dance with our darkness The ecstasy of everything We're only searching for ourselves 'Til we discover something else The ecstasy of everything"
