[Intro]
Screams from the embers of the fire
A fading light of a lost empire

[Verse 1]
Collapsed in timeless haze
Lanterns below the caves
Shine no light for the shadow man
The path to amnesty
Littered in unmarked graves
The innocent swallowed in sand

[Pre-Chorus]
The hand that grasps for life
Severed clean by the knife
With every cut so deep
How sound the sheltered sleep
Deaf ears to the ring of the siren's call
I hear they sing in heaven
We'll never hear the song

[Chorus]
Your pain is mine
I am you in another life
Your pain is mine
We were one long ago
Before the earth stole our souls
Your pain is mine
[Post-Chorus]
Every god says farewell to their sons
When the bombs come, run

[Verse 2]
Isolation in a swarm of bullets
Another infant chokes on the halos of smoke
I never saw the truth but now I know it
Consume our sanity
We've torn apart society

[Pre-Chorus]
The hand that grasps for life
Severed clean by the knife
With every cut so deep
How sound the sheltered sleep
Deaf ears to the ring of the siren's call
I hear they sing in heaven
We'll never hear the song

[Chorus]
Your pain is mine
I am you in another life
Your pain is mine
We were one long ago
Before the earth stole our souls
[Bridge]
Painted pictures always seem serene
But the reality is much harsher to see
And I need you to know
That help is out of my reach
Or at least believe me
I wished that you'd find peace
But there's no action in a thought
Simply lost at sea
Of undeniable complacency and treachery
And I plead that you were given just a chance to be free
Maybe in time, but know I tried
Your pain is mine

[Outro]
Run like your life depends on it
Because one day it will
I'm sorry child
The world wasn't there to pick up the pieces
It never will
