We Are Burning

from Directions by Lost Without Direction

lyrics

They say there's a fire burning in the sky
but they overlooked the fact that it all started down here.

Why do they always have to look up there and find their reason in something they can't even reach?

Why do we blame each other for the mistakes we've made?
Why do we blame each other for the mistakes we've made?

I just can't get over the fact that I'm burning and so do you.

We're all burning in this wasteland of democracy and peace.

But we just don't see it. We don't feel it. We ignore it.
And while we're all burning for the wrong reasons
we torch everyone and everything around us.

Everyone has his own fire, burning inside of him
but we are afraid of letting it go. Letting it chase the things it longs for.
We reached the status quo of society, as mankind can no longer explode because of their inner fear of an impact.

Either be positive or negative but don't be a person without an opinion! Masked, in fear of hate.
Show me your face!

Rip off that mask of yours and show me who you really are.
No one will recognize you because they don't know your face.

We are the people, we burn this world, we cut those trees, we kill ourselves,
we are responsible for all the terrible things that happen on earth,
we admit our faults and we want to change them!

We're not perfect, but that's human nature.
Stand up for your mistakes and blame yourself!
