lyrics

INTRO
On a mission of world destruction
Carve a pool under construction
Eyes staring up in the sky
Toy soldiers
Ready, aim, fire!

VERSE 1
You can call yourself a true believer
But inside lives a great deceiver
We don't know what lives in the ether
There's still a hero that lives inside you
The hero in you knows what to do
Do the right thing only because you want to

CHORUS
Reconnect with the part of you that's free
Break loose from the master pulling strings
Step out of line
Don't look behind
Never mind
In the end, nobody's right

VERSE 2
I used to have my head in the clouds
I grew up and started looking down
Life feels like a circle spinning round
Fragile hearts and fragile minds
Now in between us, there's a great divide
Fight with your friends and ignore the signs
