The song describes the pain caused by a disease or person who takes lives and breaks up families. The lyrics refer to missing people on posters, broken windows and glass on the floor. It expresses the singer's determination not to let this entity take their world and talks about longing for freedom from its harmful effects. The repetitive lyrics emphasize how this issue deeply hurts the singer's heart.

1. All These Lives

2. Doesn’t come down when she calls It’s time for breakfast.

3. Momma can’t get down those halls Fast enough to see.

4. Glass is sprayed across the floor

5. From the broken window.

6. She can’t breath anymore Can’t deny what we know.

7. They’re going to find you Just believe You’re not a person You’re a disease

8. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

9. Broken homes from separation Don’t you know it’s violation

10. It’s so wrong, but you’ll see. Never gonna let you take my world from me

11. The world outside these walls may know you’re breathing

12. But you ain’t coming in

13. Posters hang on building walls

14. Of missing faces

15. Months go by without the calls No clues or traces.

16. They’re going to find you Just believe You’re not a person You’re a disease

17. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

18. Broken homes from separation Don’t you know it’s violation

19. It’s so wrong, but you’ll see. Never gonna let you take my world from me

20. The world outside these walls may know you’re breathing

21. But you ain’t coming in

22. Shed the light on all the ones who never thought they would become

23. A father, mother asking why this world can be so cold

24. Doesn’t come down when she calls It’s time for breakfast The memories began to fall

25. She asks, “ When will I be free?”

26. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

27. Broken homes from separation Don’t you know it’s violation

28. It’s so wrong, but you’ll see. Never gonna let you take my world from me

29. The world outside these walls may know you’re breathing

30. But you ain’t coming in

31. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

32. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

33. All these lives that you’ve been taken* Deep inside my heart is breaking.

34. The world outside these walls may know you’re breathing

35. The world outside these walls may know you’re breathing

36. But you ain’t coming in
