What did I ever do to deserve not to starve
What did I do to deserve to breathe free, to hope, to dream
What did you do to deserve none of these things
Stare down my skin, my hands
What right have I to inherit this fighting chance
Beneath the fires of the wars we wage
The same shade of red runs through our veins, our veins
Turn my sight upside down, away from my kingdom
We've chased such counterfeit crowns,
The same
What did I ever do to learn this subtle sting of greed
What did I do to learn the silent kill, the chill of apathy
What did you do to learn none of these things
Stare down your skin, your hands
Can such fragile strength become my fighting chance
Sunrise, bittersweet horizon
On the shore, across the sea
Your eyes, see them smiling
Embers of love's still burning dream
Sunrise, in the quiet
Listen and hear a new heartbeat
Beneath the fires of the wars we wage
The same shade of red runs through our veins, our veins
Turn my sight upside down, I'll chase a kingdom
To the kings and the rubble coming down
The same
What did I do to deserve to breathe free, to hope, to dream
What did you do to deserve none of these things
Stare down my skin, my hands
What right have I to inherit this fighting chance
Beneath the fires of the wars we wage
The same shade of red runs through our veins, our veins
Turn my sight upside down, away from my kingdom
We've chased such counterfeit crowns,
The same
What did I ever do to learn this subtle sting of greed
What did I do to learn the silent kill, the chill of apathy
What did you do to learn none of these things
Stare down your skin, your hands
Can such fragile strength become my fighting chance
Sunrise, bittersweet horizon
On the shore, across the sea
Your eyes, see them smiling
Embers of love's still burning dream
Sunrise, in the quiet
Listen and hear a new heartbeat
Beneath the fires of the wars we wage
The same shade of red runs through our veins, our veins
Turn my sight upside down, I'll chase a kingdom
To the kings and the rubble coming down
The same
