We are the desperate ones, looking for the mark.
We are the lonely ones left out here in the dark.
We bought our tickets but we
Don't have a seat,
And now we are just slaves to the beat.

We are the tired ones, tired of too much sleep.
Tired of searching for the words we can't repeat.
Don't mean to scare you, but it's
Getting too warm and I
Think I'm gonna move to the door.

You see,
We are burning,
This is real.
We're on fire but
We can't feel a thing.
We were promised more than we could take.
Everybody out it's a fire escape.

Gather around my friends, let's try not to pretend
There is a war between the cold out there and the fire within.
I know that we're alive,
I know that we can die
Right into the thick of it.

You see,
We are burning,
This is real.
We're on fire but
We can't feel a thing.
We were promised more than we could take.
Everybody out it's a fire escape

I don't wanna fill my body
With drugs i can't even name.
I'm tired of feeling the same.
I wanna feel something.

We are burning,
This is real.
We're on fire
Don't you feel?
We were made to be more than just awake.
Everybody out it's a fire escape.

We are burning,
This is real.
We're on fire but
We can't feel a thing.
We were promised more than we could take.
Everybody out it's a fire escape
