Life's Riddle

[Verse] Running through the grey haze Hands stretched to the distant blaze Every step a friction phase Life's riddle spinning in a daze [Verse 2] Chasing shadows in the light Never knowing wrong from right Echoes scream in the dead of night Falling deeper out of sight [Chorus] Why we're breathing this cruel air Caught in webs of silent despair Questions answered nowhere Beneath the moon's indifferent stare [Verse 3] City lights burn in my eyes Promises wrapped in pretty lies Dreams like broken alibis Life's too short to just despise [Bridge] Still we rise and still we fall In the end hear that empty call Picking up pieces so small Crashing waves hit the wall [Chorus] Why we're breathing this cruel air Caught in webs of silent despair Questions answered nowhere Beneath the moon's indifferent stare
