(v1)
Isn't it true?
Some of us are born too late
Feel you don't belong
Generation wrong
Yet here we are
And now people are divided
The fire's in the sky
Fear became a virus
And no one knows why
(pre-chorus 1)
Everything is changing
(chorus)
But I….. will never not love you
No, I…… will never not love you
(v2)
Is it just me?
Or are we getting further the truth?
Everything's a lie
Don't believe your eyes
Just count on you
Because people are divided
The fire's in the sky
Fear became a virus
And no one knows why
(pre-chorus 2)
Everyone is raging
(repeat chorus)
(guitar solo)
(repeat chorus)

One By One

(v1)
Some people can't feel their toes
With the snow so deep
Some hurt themselves just to see
If they feel anything
I don't recall anyone
Saying "it could be worse"
Little did we know that
COPPA was merely the first
(pre-chorus)
And here we are again
Regretting we ever complained
And here we are anew
Still hoping that we'll see it through
But now that--
(chorus)
Endless disasters and heartache
Have hit the Earth
(All at once, all at once)
We, all the people, forget
Everybody hurts
(Everyone, everyone)
Our home is on fire, yet
More still we set ablaze
(Home's on fire, home's on fire)
Impossible odds could be
Possible if we save
One by one, one by one
Oooooooooooh
(v2)
Viruses up in the air
And we've locked our doors
Life is already unfair
Let's not make it more
Losing your hero can
Feel like becoming numb
But equal or worse can be
Losing someone you love
(pre-chorus)
And here we are again
Regretting we ever complained
And here we are anew
Still hoping that we'll see it through
But now that--
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
When the air is clean
We'll take in the peace and breathe
When the air is clean
We'll take in the peace and breathe
When the air is clean
We'll take in the peace and breathe
When the air is clean
We'll take in the peace and breathe
(repeat chorus)

Masquerade

(v1a)
So, you wanna get out
Of the dull routine
But you're kept inside
Stuck in quarantine
There's a world outside
Full of dopamine
And it calls you
Yeah, it calls you
(v1b)
Well, it's easy enough
To open up your gates
But we have one rule
So, let's get it straight
Keep away from folks
And cover up your face
And you're golden
Yeah, you're golden
(chorus)
Oooooooooo, it's not too late
Oooooooooo, to join the masquerade
Oooooooooo, no time to wait
Oooooooooo, it's a masquerade
(v2a)
So, despite your fears
You go and take the drive
For a chocolate shake
With a burger and fries
And you make your meal
Into a supersize
And you book it
Yeah, you book it
(v2b)
Now the trip back home
Seems to take too long
As you stare at the clock
You feel like something's wrong
And you ask yourself
As the road prolongs
Was it worth it?
Was it worth it?
(repeat chorus)
(guitar solo)
(repeat chorus)

Welcome

(v1)
Welcome to the future
We've got broken hearts and calluses
You'd hope there wouldn't be so much to tell
We count up all our tragedies
And celebrate our victories
The former we remember all too well
We all pretend we're enemies
That's what they tell us on TV
And so we often never leave our shell
Isn't that swell?
(chorus)
Hmmmmm…
(v2)
Keyboard warriors own the web
They smack us all upside the head
If not enough are meeting their demands
Ignorance is commonplace
And history hits us in the face
Before we start repeating it again
We overlook our greatest gifts
And tremble at the slightest shifts
We criticize what we don't understand
It's getting out of hand
(repeat chorus)
(v3)
Viruses are killing folks
And many think it's all a hoax
Celebrities all think they know the way
Violence is encouraged when
The cameras point at governments
And so begins the everlasting chase
Everyone is in the wrong
We've known this detail all along
And yet we still ignore our own mistakes
We treat it like a race
(repeat chorus) x2
(outro)
Welcome to the future
We've got broken hearts and calluses
You'd hope there wouldn't be so much to tell
