Witness

Morning sky, a storm
Across the great divide
But you and I were born
On the other side
Forsaken cavaliers
Valiantly we ride
We should disappear
Into the night
Into the night

But if we run, run, run, run
We might as well have won, won, won, won

Try as I may but I can't seem to shake this sickness
I am afraid we're about to be made to bear witness
To something that they will eventually pray for forgiveness
Try as I may but I can't seem to shake this sickness
This sickness

Backs against the wall
In tandem, we will sing
On the steps of city hall
From the fall until the spring
From the fall until the spring

'Cause if we run, run, run, run
We might as well have won, won, won, won

Will we be tied to the mast?
Until the bitter end
Till our children rise to bury the past
And forever be condemned
To repeating again

Try as I may but I can't seem to shake this sickness
I am afraid we're about to be made to bear witness
To something that they will eventually pray for forgiveness
Try as I may but I can't seem to shake this sickness
This sickness

This sickness
This sickness, sickness
This sickness
This sick, this sick, this sickness
