A Place We Cannot Go

One day I walked the halls and it frightened me to see
All my childish dreams have now been blown away
Come share with me your pain unless it is too late
Then like scattered crows we fly to barricade

What a terrible sight
One too often seen
Our suffering does not fall evenly

I've raised you to be bold and shout down all your fears
But I need you not to scream just run away

What a terrible sight
One too often seen
Our suffering does not fall evenly

Open your eyes to tragedy
Forced to live our lives built on broken things
A place we cannot go

Oh Christ, your blood wash over me
Symbolized all my darkest fears

Adorning all the walls were echoes of their pleas
Throwing all hope to the vastness of the sea
I've raised you to stand tall and declare your destiny
But I need you now to crouch and not be seen
