Broken Lungs

Lyrics for Broken Lungs

Woke up to a brand new skyline We licked our wounds and mourned the dead We swallowed their story, hook and sinker Is that what we meant when we said that we never would forget? Well are we fools and cowards all To let them cover up their lies? Because we all watched the buildings fall Now watch the scales fall from our eyes A fire burns beneath Manhattan And still we breathe with broken lungs But we act like none of this matters Is that what we meant when we said we'd always sing what must be sung? Well are we fools and cowards all To let them cover up their lies? Because we all watched the buildings fall Now watch the scales fall from our eyes We want answers Screamed from the roofs We want justice We want the truth
