Lyrics August Burns Red

August Burns Red

Quake

Keep moving, keep breathing

There's no time to rest your head

Keep moving, keep breathing

Sometimes help seems so hopeless

Pack up your things. Run for your lives

In hopes of finding a place to hide

The ground quakes, the trees shake

They uproot all you know

The ground quakes, the trees shake

You can't make it on your own

Imagine watching your heroes cower

Your father's face sink lower

As he tries to save you for one more hour

Cover your tracks in the earth

Let's hope they take the wrong turn

One torched home to another

Could you understand the terror?

One torched home to another

Could you understand the terror?

Watch them turn to ashes (The terror)

Disappear into the breeze

Terror, the terror

Can you empathize with their bloodshot eyes?

They're fire red from the teardrops shed

Can you empathize with all those who tried

To pull their loved ones out of harm's reach?

No, we have our own burdens to bear

No, we have our own burdens to bear

No, we have our own burdens to bear

We have our burdens to bear

Keep moving, keep breathing

There's no time to rest your head

Keep moving, keep breathing

Sometimes help seems so hopeless

With your gaze turned towards the west

We all turn the other way

Relief is unattainable with words no one will say, no one will say

The ground quakes, the trees shake

They uproot all you know

The ground quakes, the trees shake

You can't make it on your own

Can't make it on your own

It's time to reclaim your home
