Lyrics:
Can you feel the beat of a thousand marching feet Searching for passion in a lifeless dead-end street They’re breaking down the wall They’re knocking at the door Searching for a soul that gives them more
When the music dies, the apparitions of melody will rise All that’s said and done, will haunt us one by one The spirit of the heart will carry on
Are you listening to the voices as they scream Calling to the masses with the drone of sleepless dreams They’re coming to your house They’re crawling up the stairs Searching for a saint who really cares
It’s just below the skin, that it starts sinking in

Behind the Song: "This song we chose as the title track because it carries a theme that I think encompasses all the songs on this record and everything KITW is about. With this song we are simply implying that someday the music will die. Music is an ever-changing, ever-growing thing that people use up and go through like clothing. As a band we are very aware of that and are ok with that because to us, it’s not really about the actual music. Don’t get me wrong, this music is our art and we love creating it, but it’s what goes into the art and what makes the art live that really matters to us. It is our hope and desire that long after the music fades from your head, the spirit that was instilled in the music will live on in you forever." - Dave Pelsue (Kids In The Way)
