Divide
Pick your side
Pick your side
For this grand divide
It's a path to disaster
But time just moves faster
Why promise, no matter, it died
and I was unbelieving
My eyes were the enemy
Silver lining turned black just for me
If this is the conclusion
To the times cloaked in confusion
I know it's not illusion
Is it an illusion?
If you go, leave the open doors
Promise me the dusts
Promise me our laughs
Promise me before it shuts
The walls, coming alive, are here to sleep, here to reap us all
So glance back to me, back to me before the fall.
Pick your side
Pick your side
For this one divide
Am I just taking this and magnifying nothing?
Am I just finding wills to fight?
Or are the wills fighting me?
Are the wills fighting me?
But crowns just cannot see.
Under the bridges, under the bridges
Aftermaths swept away
Open the box, grow one more wing which is
just pleading for it to stay
Pick your side
Pick your side
For one more divide.
May forever be tomorrow
May tomorrow come today
To wash away the sorrow
Or there'll be Hell to pay
