By The Ground, We're Defined

After all is said and done, we build
Suck the ground below us dryer still
Rooted
We're all competing for light
A clambering struggle
The fight

I feel so helpless
Left no option but to seek the Sun
When was the last time the rain fell?
We will not flourish in these woods until
Drencher, become us

After all is said and done, we build
We thrive
Suck the ground below us dryer still
Rooted in their evil
We're all competing for light
A clambering struggle
The fight

Life's become a crusade
Lies have become commonplace
A hope that's kept at arms length
A promise scratched by our fingertips

Reach up
We thrive

What would you rather do?

What's to blame? Where does it lie?
If it's still undiscovered how long will it hide?
These days of clouded vision are all we have
For now

All we have
All we see in clouds
Through the doubt
From six foot underground

Somehow they lead us to that grave
That was the funeral of all our beliefs
