Heathens Lyrics

Darkness covers the sky

Experiencing midnight life

Each question I'm asking lies cold without a reply

Like soot it's heavy to breathe

I've lost all faith and belief

All effort is going towards the slightest relief

They're calling us heathens cause we are so different

Don't share their view of the world

They're pushing us far away into the distance

So no one will hear our words

And there's nothing we can do

Our voices will never reach you

We're trapped in an ocean of sorrow

Where darkness ensues

So much is being required

My strength has already expired

The voices up in my head will never be quiet

I'm the only one stuck with this fate

We're the only ones, that's what they say

If all of the only ones come on together

There's nothing we cannot create

They're calling us heathens cause we are so different

Don't share their view of the world

They're pushing us far away into the distance

So no one will hear our words

But there's something we can do

Our voices, they might reach a few

We'll stand together and fight

So we can see this through

Maybe there's time to escape

Maybe there's another way

To living a life that's free of the strife

Made up of society's craze

A flicker of hope ignites

An ember of future in the darkest of nights

It might well not cure us but bring us undiscovered heights

They're calling us heathens cause we are so different

Don't share their view of the world

They're pushing us far away into the distance

So no one will hear our words

But there's nothing they can do

Our voices will reach all of you

If we stand together and fight

Then we can see this through
