Lyrics

I see the oceans rising
Higher and higher
A war has been waging for years and years and ages and eternities
And now I look to the blood red sky
I see what's beneath all of this chaos in all of us
An illusion of power
A crumbling tower
For anyone who dares to see the obvious truth
The power is ours

This is for the ones who gather strength in silence
It isn't over (it isn't over)
This is for the ones who rise against your violence
It isn't over (it isn't over)

Am I strong enough to believe
'Cause I can't see you
But I can feel you there

Sanctuary
Breathe it in, scream it out
No one's coming to save us
It doesn't scare me
I'm with you all the way down
Changed by the pain, we know who we are

This is for the shedding skin that bore your sickness
It isn't over (it isn't over)
This is for the living truth of our resistance
It isn't over (it isn't over)
We're taking it over

Sanctuary
Breathe it in, scream it out
No one's coming to save us
It doesn't scare me
I'm with you all the way down
Changed by the pain, we know who we are

All the light in the world
All the love in your heart
Endless lies controlling every mind they infect
And it's still not enough
It's never enough

Sanctuary
No one's coming to save us
Sanctuary
Hold onto what you love

Sanctuary
Breathe it in, scream it out
No one's coming to save us
It doesn't scare me
I'll be with you all the way down
Changed by the pain, we know who we are
