Born & Raised
Alexisonfire

All blossoms die in the light of our new culture

Find your belief in that which cannot be discovered

Countless lessons lie in every fever dream

A million voices asking what does it all mean?



I've lost all direction, I've lost all my direction

And now I wish that I would have believed, could have believed

Escape, escape, nature's indifferent hand

Retreat, retreat to the bliss of our creation



We were born and raised to live beyond

The heft and weight of a world undone

Like a bird from the north

Our hearts will roam in search of warmth



Two hands come together to pray for greater yields

Two poles of a compass guided by a field

In the mind of every man two ghosts dance

Was this place made or was it here by chance?



I've lost all direction, I've lost all my direction

And now I wish, that I would have believed, could have believed

Escape, escape, nature's indifferent hand

Retreat, retreat to the bliss of our creation



We were born and raised to live beyond

The heft and weight of a world undone

Like a bird from the north

Our hearts will roam in search of warmth



Uncountable numbers written in new fallen snow

I can hear the claws of the beast tapping at my window

Nihilist sleeps and in dreams he sees God's face

Realize even disbelief requires a leap of faith



From birth to death we search for what's yet to be known

We hope and pray and ask but we are never shown



Born and raised to live beyond

The heft and weight of a world undone

Like a bird from the north

Our hearts will roam in search of warmth



We were born and raised, born and raised

Born and raised, born and raised
