When the World Looks Away

i hear the future calling though the sky is falling chicken little says
if heaven holds suggestions it’s mouth is full of questions that won’t go away
what if everybody knew that the choice would fall to you
when the world looks away
the hallowed hallways echo with all the things we let go that won’t come back
the crippled constitution in it’s newfound destitution has everyone under attack
what if everybody knew that the choice would fall to you
tell me what are we to do when the world looks away
all i see is fallen trees heavy with uncertainties
we’re not righteous we’re not right
this will never be my fight
all the steps we’ve taken policies forsaken in the name of truth
what will be left for us if the lonely can’t count on you
what if everybody knew that the choice would fall to you
tell me what are we to do when the world looks away
