The Spirit Dies

When people turn to genocide
All that's good and pure is tossed aside
    And beauty is lost amongst the madness

    The spirit dies as the stars begin to fade
Summer turns cold
    The chemistry makes me afraid to touch the sand
And I know I must fear the tide

    I can't control this constant beating in my heart
As the rain burns my skin
    I can't control this constant beating in my mind
And despise the state therein

    Where can I go where I'm free to face the sun
        Without turning to stone?
    I guess I'll never know

    I drift away to a world of long ago
To a time before the rockets red glare
    Before the blood was shed upon the trail of tears
And life was not filled with death and despair

    Where can I go where I'm free to face the sun
Without turning to stone?
    What can I do when the world is crashing down
And we've got nowhere else to go

    I guess I'll never know
