[Intro]
Welcome new recruits to your evaluation and initiation course
This system is designed to test your survival and critical thinking skills in Aeon City
Please adjust the volume and do not move
Welcome
To the Resistance

[Verse 1: Dave Escamilla]
I've been a victim
I've been a coward hiding underneath my pain
I've been immobilized and watched the system
Destroy everything I loved
We cannot take this
We must resist this

[Pre-Chorus: Dave Escamilla]
Who will you follow when the world fades to the grey?
Where can I turn when the world gives up on me?

[Chorus: Andy Leo]
I keep waiting in the dark for someone to come and save me
And I've been holding on to something I can never change
We all search for higher ground
When the world comes crashing down, but I know
Nobody will come in to the dark and save me
[Verse 2: Andy Leo & Dave Escamilla]
With iron claws and casted hearts
I feel my fear just fall apart
I'm melted down to clear my past
And then forged from fire so that I may ask:

[Pre-Chorus: Dave Escamilla]
Who will you follow when the world fades to the grey?
Where can I turn when the world gives up on me?

[Chorus: Andy Leo]
I keep waiting in the dark for someone to come and save me
And I've been holding on to something I can never change
We all search for higher ground
When the world comes crashing down, but I know
Nobody will come in to the dark and save me

[Interlude]
All new recruits
We have been surrounded by scarecrows
This is not a drill
I repeat this is not a drill
Runaway status is active to all new recruits effective immediately
System failure
Look what they've done to us
Look what they've done to us
Look what they've done to us
[Bridge: Dave Escamilla]
I've grown so sick of hiding
It's time we reclaim what's ours
They try to say what we'll become
And rearrange the stars
I know I'm sick and fucking tired
Of this mess they've made
So let their arrows block the sun
We will fight under the shade
Welcome to the Resistance

[Chorus: Andy Leo]
I keep waiting in the dark for someone to come and save me
And I've been holding on to something I can never change
We all search for higher ground
When the world comes crashing down, but I know
Nobody will come in to the dark and save me
I keep waiting in the dark for someone to come and save me
And I've been holding on to something I can never change
We all search for higher ground
When the world comes crashing down, but I know
Nobody will come in to the dark and save me

[Outro: Dave Escamilla]
Who will you follow when the world fades to the grey?
When the world fades to the grey
Where can I turn when the world gives up on me?
When the world gives up on me
