It's not easy to avoid who we ought to be
We're sighing then we're dying
We're only human with our eyes closed
We're only children of the sun
Maybe we have forgotten or maybe
It has always been like this
Maybe we have forgotten that this machine kills
Are busy sighing then you're truly dying
Do you still pretend to hear the angels cry
Are you still suffering or is it okay now
I can't believe this one track mind
Emancipation is a two edged sword
This is not what I call freedom
Imperfect imperfect
Imperfect imperfect
Come a little closer
Little closer
Hear me plead
Have you seen the first dawn
Of a new tomorrow
Do you still pretend to stand
Branded by the light
Now we're still suffering
And it ain't okay at all
I can't believe we're so small
Still not what I would call freedom
Imperfect imperfect
Imperfect imperfect
