lyrics

The dark swallows the earth
and with tears in your eyes theres nothing to say
our skins been torn up and our bones broken down
we've seen some tough fights but its not over now
so just open your eyes and you realize

A knight in shining armor has just never been tested before
and they wont start now. They wont start now.
Beware false valor be carried by banners and crowns.
They're lost in pride. Lost in pride.

Days turn into nightmares
i feel stranded alone and lost in a crowd
theres a pain in our chests and it makes our blood crawl
as we stare at the darkness and see nothing at all
you opened your eyes and you realized

CHORUS

+Mario Savio- "Bodies Upon The Gears" December 2, 1964+
