Текст песни As I Lay Dying Beyond Our Suffering

bound to learn the hard way
this is the human condition
there is nothing that can be said
to stop us from making mistakes
when i look to myself as a source of ending pain
no matter how many times before i've failed


it seems our problems solve themselves
when we look beyond us to those truly in hell


the more i focus on myself
then the more helpless that i become
so why not erase this point of view?
my suffering is trivial
compared to those who know real agony


it seems our problems solve themselves
when we look beyond us to those truly in hell
it seems our problems solve themselves
when we look beyond our suffering


my trials seem insignificant now


why won't we look beyond us?
why won't we look beyond our despair?
it seems our problems solve themselves
when we look to those truly in hell


personal redemption cannot change the world
unless we lay down our lives for those who still suffer
