These are our lifes But did they ever even matter? Are we worth remembering? These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) We’re throwing wrenches in the gears Our lifes will not be lived in vain (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) When this is all said and done We spent this life on the run Judged by the company we keep Our language buried inside These lungs that keep us alive We breathe so selfishly Promises we plan to break Are made in whispered voices Cause our despair knows many names We make mistakes But we apologize with roses we never stop to smell on the way These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) We’re throwing wrenches in the gears Our lifes will not be lived in vain (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) When this is all said and done We spent this life on the run Judged by the company we keep Our language buried inside These lungs that keep us alive We breathe so selfishly We fell from the sky todaaay We melt into balls of claay We sell ourselves everyday Don’t tell me how to live this way Pushed so far to the edge We teeter just on the brink (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) You can lead me to the bloodbath But you can’t make me drink (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) As These machines feed on the tears of broken lifes and dying dreams (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) We’re throwing wrenches in the gears Our lifes will not be lived in vain (Oh Ohhhhhhhh Oh Ohhhhhhhhhh) my life will not be lived in vain
