Stuck in a crisis
Without a conscience
Trapped in a place we don't belong
There's no more heroes
Left to believe in
They've pushed our backs against the wall

I know that something has to change
We got lost along the way
Your thoughts and prayers can't fix the pain
'Cause we're falling down again

Crooks and deceivers
Misled believers
A world where decency is gone
Chaotic flashes
Of huddled masses
Stare down the barrel of the gun

I know that something has to change
We got lost along the way
Your thoughts and prayers can't fix the pain
'Cause we're falling down again

Live in a reckless paradise
The house is burning, trapped inside
A reckless paradise
The wheels are turning truth to lies
In reckless paradise
Could cut the tension with a knife
In reckless paradise
It's up to us to read between the lines

Your thoughts and prayers can't fix the pain
'Cause we're falling down again

Reckless paradise
The house is burning, trapped inside
A reckless paradise
The wheels are turning truth to lies
In reckless paradise
Could cut the tension with a knife
In reckless paradise
It's up to us to read between the lines

Your thoughts and prayers can't fix the pain
'Cause we're falling down again
