Outnumbered

We're outnumbered, torn asunder,

all the unsuspecting faces gaze up to the sky,
roll out the red carpet, open your arms wide,
line up with your welcome smiles,
expectations guaranteed to fail,

safe to say they didn't come in peace,
what will you do now?
The truth is slowly dawning,
no more where or when or how,
once I would have killed for this,
now it seems we'll die for this,
oh why, should I laugh or cry?

'Cause we're outnumbered, five to one,
torn asunder, before we've even begun,

we're outnumbered, here they come,
so much hunger, soon it will be done,

they draped him in an ancient flag,
laying where he fell,
untouched by rain or sun,
the elements repelled,
he held me up so I could watch
the coming of the hordes, now it's too late,

stare into a baby's eyes, a mirror you will see,
and can you hear the echo of your chosen destiny,
but all this counts for nothing,
'cause now we finally know we're not alone,

because we're outnumbered, five to one,
torn asunder, before we've even begun,

we're outnumbered, here they come,
so much younger, soon it will be done,

we're outnumbered (we're outnumbered).
