oo many lies when I was seventeen
|
And now I'm keeping up time with you
|
Short sounds of apocalypse
|
And my world's torn out of view
|
It's always the same
|
They want to lock you down inside
|
They won't let you try
|
|
I realize it's all the same when the lights dim down to pray
|
Through the eyes we paralyze but the world won't stop today
|
Did you rise for someone else?
|
Were you afraid to be yourself?
|
We've waited all our lives for the chance to come undone
|
|
We spit asides and we ruminate
|
About the false sense of it all
|
Life's short and the spirit falters
|
All the weak will do is crawl
|
In broken time
|
To conclusions we've assigned
|
|
We sacrifice and burn
|
To steal convention all away
|
We try to paint the future
|
Somehow we sterilize today
|
|
With an audience complicit
|
We change the lies to gold
|
In our septic disaffection
|
Still function as we're told
|
As we're told
|
