Turning Away Lyrics

For too long our hearts
Have yearned for silent oceans
You and I we share the same blinded lives
Story of a silent man's devotion
Forced to believe in disreputable lies

Why should we care what's beyond
When we're safe at last
This ancient contious gap
A self contious lack
Feeds our fear and again

We are turning away
From the spiral of fear
Not one reflection on the screen
That hasn't yet been seen
We are turning away
I'm not afraid to say
The more we turn we stay

Day by day this tidal wave draws its way Breaks the threshold of our mind
Our so-called knowledge left behind
Indifference's the key to a bleached conformity
So credulous and clear through the mirror
We stare

Why should we help those in need
We are safe at last
This ancient contious gap
A self contious lack
Feeds our fear and again

We are turning away
From the spiral of fear
Not one reflection on the screen
That hasn't yet been seen
We are turning away
I'm not afraid to say
The more we turn we stay obsolete
And insecure
