Seven billion people
And still we do not see
All that which could free us
So we will never be

Seven billion people
And yet the world won't change
Exploit the ones you step on
For your own personal gain

I'm afraid to face the world
I once saw the light
Thought that it was bright
I'm afraid to face the world
I once would fight
For what was right
I'm afraid to face world
Without a voice
Without a choice we're gone
Gone
Gone

The young and old dead
Just this year
From ignorance and hate
Is enough to birth a lonely fear
And condemn us to our fate

Seven billion people
And we still don't understand
What it means to be human
What it means to take a stand

The leader's words show his detachment
From the suffering and pain
As he sits atop his gilded throne
That god did not ordain

I'm afraid to face the world
I once saw joy
I was just a boy
I'm afraid to face the world
Once I could be
But now I see
I'm afraid to face world

Without a voice
Without a choice we're gone
Gone
Gone

Seven billion people
And still we do not see
All that which could free us
So we will never be

Seven billion people
And yet the world won't change
Exploit the ones you step on
For your own personal gain

And we're all alone
And we're all alone

As I sit here
So alone
Drowning in my room
I know that I am just a ghost
Of what I once stood up to

A coward I've become at most
A soulless husk at best
But there's a hollow ache within my chest
So now I must confess
I'm afraid to face the world
