Song of Unrest - City and Colour

Have I lost my touch?

I want to feel less fear

Where is the stirring of hope

Once I held so near?

This mournful wail

Has worn away so thin

Life is long if you’re living it

But dread will blow in like the wind

How can I explain

So that you will understand

How foolish it must be

To opine so openly?

Such a delicate life

So full of tragedy

Why do we continue to treat

Each other so savagely?

Pills don’t seem to work

We’re lost at the bottom of the sea

Our bones are searching for something else

Tired of the flesh that they see

I never thought that I’d grow up to be

Another face in the crowd

On the wrong side of history

How can I explain

So that you will understand

How foolish it must be

To opine so openly?

Such a delicate life

So full of tragedy

Why do we continue to treat

Each other so savagely?
