8:18

Streets taut with empty lines

Bullets clutter the sidewalk

The gun trembles in a young mans hand

The mother visits a grave site

They ask why we suffer

Oh god, please answer

Rivers run, mountains peak

We remain scared (we remain scared)

I try to remember

You and me together

Rivers run, mountains peak

We all remain scared

It's so abrupt

The life designed for us

(Reach out) it's so abrupt (it's there)

(Reach out) the life designed for us (it's there)

They ask why we suffer

Oh god, please answer

Rivers run, mountains peak

We remain scared (we remain scared)

The city mounts another loss, but we'll pray forever

Rivers run, mountains peak

I know you're there
