(Verse 1)
We build up walls, we carve out stone
Raise up idols, claim the throne
But even mountains wear away
When hands of men decide to play
(Pre-Chorus)
We strike at steel, we break the chains
Turn beauty into dust and flames
The stronger they stand, the harder they fall
Like we were never here at all
(Chorus)
Humanity—
We live to hurt what’s unhurtable
Test the sky, just to watch it burn
We tear apart the indestructible
And never stop to learn
(Verse 2)
We whisper words that cut like knives
Turn love to war, take precious lives
The unshakable begins to bend
What we destroy won’t heal again
(Pre-Chorus)
We strike at steel, we break the chains
Turn beauty into dust and flames
The stronger they stand, the harder they fall
Like we were never here at all
(Chorus)
Humanity—
We live to hurt what’s unhurtable
Test the sky, just to watch it burn
We tear apart the indestructible
And never stop to learn
(Bridge)
We say we fear the end of days
Yet set the world ablaze
What will be left of what we know
When there's nowhere else to go?
(Outro)
Humanity—
We live to hurt what’s unhurtable
But what if we chose to heal instead
And held the light before it’s dead?
