Awake, unfazed,
Morning light tells of the dawning day
Just like any day
Brush off sleep's touch,
Clear midnight's haze
There's nothing extraordinary here,
A flaccid world, unfit, unclear
Desperate for something more
Something more than getting by
Empty faces on the sidewalk,
Listless and limping to a lie,
Of a bright and pleasant future,
Of a blue and cloudless sky
A phantom whisper sounds deceiving
It brings with it the question ?why??
We work until we are unable,
Then locked away until we die
But then it happened
Everything changed in but an instant
A violent burst of brilliant colour,
somehow close and somehow distant
From a whisper,to a scream,
to a hoarse, distorted laugh
There is no hope of restitution
There is no ever going back
In dreamless sleep,
one ponders death
Hold back the fleeting final breath
Knuckle white, slipping grip,
jaw clenched tight, and quivering lip
This cannot happen
This cannot be
Escape a life of anonymity
to be a drop into the sea,
whose ripple turns to tidal wave
that sweeps the shores it once forgave
But crashing down upon the shore,
the sea is silent evermore
Awake, unfazed,
morning light tells of the dawning day
just like any day.
Brush off sleep's touch,
clear midnight's haze
There's nothing extraordinary here,
a flaccid world, unfit, unclear
Desperate for something more,
something more than getting by
There's got to be something more than this
It sounds so deceiving
Begging the question ?why??
Begging the question ?why??
Why do we work until we are unable?
Why do we work until we die?
A drop into the sea
whose ripple turns to tidal wave,
and sweeps the shores it once forgave
The sun, the moon, the Earth,
conversed and agreed,
the people of the world must pay for its atrophy.
But crashing down upon the shore,
the sea is silenced evermore
But then it happened
everything changed in but an instance
A violent burst of brilliant colour,
somehow close and somehow distance
What unknown face now breaks the silence?
What tipping force disturbs the balance?
Swift and sober, comes a voice, offering a bitter choice

Protest the Hero è una band canadese di progressive metal/mathcore proveniente da Whitby, Ontario. Formatisi nel 1999, i membri hanno mantenuto la stessa formazione sin dagli inizi. Inizialmente chiamati Happy Go Lucky, hanno cambiato nome prima dell'uscita del loro primo EP, *A Calculated Use of Sound*, seguito dall'album di debutto completo, *Kezia*, pubblicato dall'etichetta indipendente Underground Operations. Il 23 gennaio 2006, la band ha firmato ufficialmente con Vagrant Records per il rilascio statunitense di *Kezia*, uscito negli Stati Uniti il 4 aprile 2006. Il loro secondo album in studio, *Fortress*, è stato ufficialmente pubblicato da Underground Operations in Canada e da Vagrant Records in tutto il mondo il 29 gennaio 2008.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
