Tipping Point

VERSE 1
How can we exist?
When all that's left is this?
We have to find another way (We can’t keep going)
How do we move on?
Where did it all go wrong?
We have destroyed our only world
(there’s nothing left here)

PRE CHORUS
Scientists find the reason we die
and the rest of us close our eyes

CHORUS
The world we know is dead and gone
(There’s no returning)
We are falling towards the light
(To find some meaning)
The future looks like a spinning coin (heads or tails)
With our fate on either side (To live or die)

VERSE 2
Ignorance is bliss and the reason is this
we never looked under the bed (To see what’s hiding)
monsters in our minds, we look into their eyes
We find a way to make them pay (For their crimes)

PRE CHORUS
Scientists find the reason we die
and the rest of us close our eyes

CHORUS
The world we know is dead and gone
(there’s no returning)
We are falling towards the light
(To find some meaning)
The future looks like a spinning coin (heads or tails)
With our fate on either side (To live or die)

BRIDGE
Why don't we try to stay alive
Listen to those with better minds
accept our limits and live within them
If we fight we can get out with our lives

CHORUS
The world we know is only young (We’ve still got time)
We are walking towards the light
(We found our meaning)
The future looks like a spinning coin
With new lives on either side, life is our prize
