Alexisonfire - Born And Raised Lyrics
All blossoms die in the light of our new cultureFind your belief in that which cannot be discoveredCountless lessons lie in every fever dreamA million voices asking, what does it all mean?I've lost all directionI've lost all my directionAnd now I wish, that I would have believedCould have believedEscape, escapeNature's indifferent handRetreat, retreatTo the bliss of our creationWe were born and raised (raised)To live beyond (beyond)The heft and weight of a world undoneLike a bird from the north (for warmth)Our hearts will roam in search of warmthTwo hands come together to pray for greater yieldsTwo poles of a compass guided by a fieldIn the mind of every man, two ghosts danceWas this place made, or was it here by chance?I've lost all directionI've lost all my directionAnd now I wish, that I would have believedCould have believedEscape, escapeNature's indifferent handRetreat, retreatTo the bliss of our creationWe were born and raised (raised)To live beyond (beyond)The heft and weight of a world undoneLike a bird from the north (for warmth)Our hearts will roam in search of warmthUncountable numbers written in new fallen snowI can hear the claws of the beast tapping at my windowNihilist sleeps and in dreams he sees god's faceRealize even disbelief requires a leap of faithFrom birth to death, we search for what's yet to be knownWe and hope and pray and ask, but we are never shownBorn and raised (raised)To live beyond (beyond)The heft and weight of a world undoneLike a bird from the north (for warmth)Our hearts will roam in search of warmthWe were born and raised (raised)Born and raised (and raised)Born and raised (and raised)Born and raised (and raised)
