What Theyve Done Lyrics

What Theyve Done lyrics

I counted the seconds

As they passed me by like hours

Avoiding
contact with the world

That seeks to find me

Somehow they've found
a way

Of making me their firing range

The tragedy has just begun

Now we must pay for what they've done



They came for me today

I found no escape

They're coming to rescue me

From your
disgrace

Why did they discard

The embryo's contract

It was
never easy to pretend there was a reason



Turning in this vicious
groove

I have fallen into

My father my government

Forgot me
when I was a child

Someday when I am stronger

I'll find my way
across the room

And open up the door they've closed

I am so afraid
of what they've done



They came for me today

I found no
escape

They're coming to rescue me

From your disgrace

Why did
they discard

The embryo's contract

It was never easy to pretend
there was a reason



Outside my window lies

The promise of my
freedom

I searched and found no sanctuary

To shelter my exposure to
the rain



Time was gaining on me

I ran as fast as I could

The fever came to fast

Infected with tomorrow

Sometimes it seems
to me

This is all we are meant to be

Is there anyone above

To
make them pay for what they've done



They came for me today

I
found no escape

They're coming to rescue me

From your disgrace

Why did they discard

The embryo's contract

It was never easy to
pretend there was a reason



Outside my window lies

The
promise of my freedom

I searched and found no sanctuary

To shelter
my exposure to the rain
