And it burns my heart

Two-faced enemy to criticize he said she said

All these years are left for dead

Will we fight when we won't have retreat?

Just a hole where your heart used to be

The nation fades away and the aftertaste is bitter

Will the ghost that haunts stand for this song?

We have nothing for this pain, ignorance to true gain

Who is left now to catch your fall

They won't be there, they won't be there

      Ab
They won't be there, they won't be there
