You long to set the world straight
But you will fail if you wait or hesitate
So, take aim and pull the trigger back

There was a time
When I knew of love and amity
But it faded like
The warmth inside a falling tear
Is it a crime to see fault in our humanity?
Why do we create this cycle of hate
Breeding more fear?

There's a pain deep inside of me
And you're struggling to stay alive
But if we last I know
We'll live to see a brighter tomorrow

You long to set the world straight
But you will fail if you wait or hesitate
So, take aim and pull the trigger back
Through every fear that you fight
You're giving life to a spark of crimson red
It burns bright just waiting to ignite

As our impulses ring aloud
This world's evolving
To the sound of a new beginning

It cries at last
That relentless sound I know so well
Always deafening
But I can never pull away
The die is cast
And you can't restart or change the past
But if given only one more
Chance could you carve the way?

I can feel it waste away inside
But the fire in me hasn't died
And I would rather sell my soul
Than watch it all slowly fade away

I'm sick of being afraid
And living by the mistakes that I have made
But I'll change that with these hands of mine
Believing in something more
I'll carve a path through that rusted doorway
There's still more
That's still worth fighting for

Our battle cry is rising higher
As raw emotion fuels the fire
Piercing through the night sky

The shooting stars fall upon the darkness
Until the skies are pitch black and starless
But when the world is reborn
The curtains open wide

You long to set the world straight
But you will fail if you wait or hesitate
So, take aim and pull the trigger back
Through every fear that you fight
You're giving life to a spark of crimson red
It burns bright just waiting to ignite

As our impulses ring aloud
This world's evolving
To the sound of a new beginning
