Sounds Like

If everything that we love will burn down
Then should we love no one and nothing?
If all that we build falls down
Then I will dig the deepest hole, dig down, down

All the things we don't say might mean something
Somewhere to someone
But nothing here is ever good enough

So we close our eyes and wait for something better (woah-oh)
Not knowing what we're even waiting for (woah-oh)
With our hands cupped to the sky, we wait forever (woah-oh)
Sacrificing light we're given
Never knowing what we're living for

Can I have your attention, please?
I've played the game, you see
To make all these ends meet
But it's not enough

The fabric we all share
All starts to rip and tear
We're sending thoughts and prayers
But they're not enough

Words without action equal nothing
They'll say where we're gone
We've heard your excuses all before
And this is what they sound like

So we close our eyes and wait for something better (woah-oh)
Not knowing what we're even waiting for (woah-oh)
With our hands cupped to the sky, we wait forever (woah-oh)
Sacrificing light we're given
Never knowing what we're living for

We're living for
We're living for
And this is what it sounds like
(This is what it sounds like)

So don't close your eyes, don't wait for something better
Know exactly what it is you're waiting for
Put your empty hands away, don't wait forever (woah-oh)
And don't sacrifice the light you're given
Know exactly what you're living for
