The Wreckage Lyrics

Oh, the borders are bursting
the bank sand went dry
like deserts of sands
and the fears that we've cried
witness the wreckage
the steady decline
the ruins we betrayed

in excess we surround ourselves
and oh so willingly
in decadence we drown ourselves
to make our lives complete

fall down
having trembled there
into the gutters
gasping for air
keep up with the running pace
or be replaced

in excess we surround ourselves
and oh so willingly
in decadence we drown ourselves
to make our lives complete

we crave acceptance and stability
we fear rejection
yeah, we claim to be free

witness the wreckage (the wreckage, the wreckage)
yeah, witness the wreckage

in excess we surround ourselves
and oh so willingly
in decadence we drown ourselves
we fight the ruins of our past
for everyone to see
in decadence we drown ourselves
to make
our lives
complete
