We Kill What We Love - Initial Version

The time has come for us to change
Leave behind all the wars we've waged

The lines in our faces betray us
The cracks beneath our feet condemn us
We'll be buried alone with only our names
We'll turn to dust with only our shame

Trapped in a ghost net we
Are designed to make lies sound truthful
All day long we engorge
In a paradise forged so brutal

We need our other's pain
To fuel our fragile function
We need to make it rain
But we just bring destruction

Truth be told we're lost
In the end we kill what we love

We take what we want
And we kill what we love

The world was our playground
Ran around with fears set in clay
We chose to cover it in sadness
Damnation is one daydream away

The time has come for us to change
Leave behind all the wars we've waged

The bitter end has come again
With forest fires
While we hang from our wires
With thoughts and prayers
We look up to the stars
Will we ever stop to see ourselves

People don't like humans anymore
Cheap thrills is what we ask for
Like an abusive lover
Every time we say we loved her

Truth be told we're lost
In the end we kill what we love
We kill what we love

Truth be told we're lost
In the end we kill what we love
We kill what we love

We take what we want
And we kill what we love

We take what we want
And we kill what we love
Oh love
