We are human, we are violent

We learn our lessons, then defy them

We are heartless and immoral

We carry hatred like a Bible

And there's a hole in my life, there's a blackness inside

That's eating me alive, leaving me to decide

Do I live with this pain?

As the rain starts to fall from my eyes

Asking myself why

I see terrible things

I see a sickness in a world on it's knees

It will take what you love like a thief

But in my dreams, I believe we're not these

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)

We are nothin' without failure, but we've chosen ill behaviour

With every scar, we have learned not to heal, but to hurt

We've become somethin' else, even I cannot tell just why (why)

I see terrible things

I see a sickness in a world on it's knees

It will take what you love like a thief

But in my dreams, I believe we're not these

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)

If I fall (if I fall)

If I run (if I run)

That's when I will become

Terrible things

I see terrible things (I see terrible things)

I see a sickness in a world on its knees (a world on its knees)

It will take what you love like a thief (oh)

But in my dreams, I believe we're not these

Look at me and you'll see, I'm not these

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)

Terrible things (ah-ah-ah)
