Should Have Known

We say a prayer for the lost
 We say a prayer for the lost
 So I'd like to clarify
 And shed some light between the reasons why
 We seem to captify the wrong intentions
 That we feel inside but never seem to mention
 That single moment
 When the windows open
 Making all your actions
 As your words are spoken
 We say a prayer for the lost
 So that their eyes will open
 It supercedes the final cost
 Won't let their hearts be broken
 The wrong system takes control
 To quantify the reasons you were sold
 Buy the lies that all the people tell you
 Never find the reason that you see the miscue
 There's no time to pacify
 All expansion happens when we're on the same side
 It makes or break our own humanity's decline
 Why's it seem to happen every single damn time
 We say a prayer for the lost
 So that their eyes will open
 It supercedes the final cost
 Won't let their hearts be broken
 Our children need our sacrifice
 Our turn to make things right
 Don't pass the blame, don't pass the price
 It's time to draw the line
 There's no time to pacify
 All expansion happens when we're on the same side
 It makes or breaks our own humanity's decline
 Why's it seem to happen every single damn time
 We say a prayer for the lost
 That single moment
 When the windows open
 Make it all your actions
 As your words are spoken
 We say a prayer for the lost
 So that their eyes will open
 It supercedes the final cost
 Won't let their hearts be broken
 We say a prayer for the lost (No time to pacify)
 We say a prayer for the lost (Our turn to make things right)
 We say a prayer for the lost (No time to pacify)
 We say a prayer for the lost (It's time to draw the line)
