Who Decides by Nevermore Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2003

[Intro]
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven
They can't reach heaven

[Verse 1]
And so, we meet again
The dirt on our feet, but then
Who knows who really decides?
In this spatial oddity
This viral commodity
The astronaut listens to voices that call

[Pre-Chorus]
Won't you follow me down?
Breathe, as you suffer with existence
[Chorus]
Rags and ruin of all that was human
Leaching the force of collective design
Heroes and rapists, they all have nice faces
But who decides, who defines
Who draws the lines?

[Verse 2]
In this wasted miracle
The outcome so terminal
Why do we waste time on hope?
In perfect execution
Liquid and lucid
Born in the astronaut's eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Of hate, loathing, wonder, and fear
Breathe, as you suffer in denial

[Chorus]
The lover and the blind man
They sing their song
The pleasured and the pained
Pray their sins are gone
They can't reach heaven
The truth's brutal lesson:
Forgive yourself, for no one else
Will die for your crimes
[Outro]
But who decides?
Who decides?
