Have You Ever?

They are getting small, these shadows on the wall

Shadows that dwell, for your own private hell

I know you will not try to understand, I know you will not strive for change

Have you ever thought about why, have you ever given it a try

Have you faced the flames inside

Have you ever understood mankind

Both ends burning, inside the circles turning

Staring into the glass, making a mess

No one knows what’s meant to break, no one knows what’s meant to take

Have you ever thought about why, have you ever given it a try

Have you faced the flames inside

Have you ever understood mankind

Smash it, break this glass -do it, stop this mess - stop it,

Bleed it out, reach for the sane

Have you ever thought about why, have you ever given it a try

Have you faced the flames inside

Have you ever understood mankind

Have you ever thought about why, have you ever given it a try

Have you faced the flames inside

Have you ever understood mankind
