Every thought that I ignore
Another question's at my door
It's when will we begin
To believe in this again

Can we believe?
Can we believe?

I walk down the street
With shadows at my feet
And words in my head
Songs left unsaid

Do you know how we got here?
Do you know how we got here?

A drink to clear my throat
Enough to eat the words you wrote
I've said these words before
Felt this break, closed that door

Are you a stranger?
Are you a stranger?

Never seemed to bother me
Now I find it hard to breathe
Everything that you wrote
Sticks inside, chokes my throat

Do I think way too much?
Are we running out of luck?

Can a nation built on blood
Find its way out of the mud?
Will the people at the top
Lose their way enough to stop?

Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
Can we begin again?
