We Are

We are slipping through love
Into the cracks of dispair
And all we see is the sorrow
Of others that are here
We are landing on hate
As we ride through this place
And we know we're not welcome
Cos they give you the face
Go, be gone
Be all alone

Well you see it's just the beginning
And now we are already falling
We know that we must move swift
Or else we will be caught in this rift
Between us both and we know we won't last
Then we're brought down and down we're falling fast
What about us now?

We are slipping through love
Into the cracks of dispair
And all we see is the sorrow
Of others that are here
We are landing on hate
As we ride through this place
And we know we're not welcome
Cos they give you the face
Go, be gone
Be all alone

Well the pain will keep on growing
As we live in this life and then someone is knowing
Something is different between us now
And we seem to always fall right back down
At the last hurdle
At the last piece of truth
Trust isn't used because it doesn't sooth
It just keeps the pile standing high
Higher then when our souls crashed and died

We are slipping through love
Into the cracks of dispair
And all we see is the sorrow
Of others that are here
We are landing on hate
As we ride through this place
And we know we're not welcome
Cos they give you the face
Go, be gone
Be all alone

No point to save it
Not any use now
Why should we pretend
If we do not allow
Pretend stories
That seem to pile up
And then it comes crashing
While feelings erupt
We both know it's useless
But we still carry on this war
You better go get your Armour
Cos I'm not letting you out this door

We are slipping through love
Into the cracks of dispair
And all we see is the sorrow
Of others that are here
We are landing on hate
As we ride through this place
And we know we're not welcome
Cos they give you the face
Go, be gone
Be all alone
