Everything we won now is worthless and frozen. Everything we worked for now is pointless and crooked. Nothing that we do makes a difference is untrue. Nothing that seems real is obtained through our minds eye.
Something that’s not here has retreated and kicked rocks
Something which we feel peels confidence our skin dies
Feeding on the souls of the righteous encompassed
Kneeling on the backs that we’ve broken playing god
Controlling the minds of the voiceless and blinded
Controlling the world, without remorse
Controlling the minds of the voiceless and blinded
Controlling the world, without remorse.
Isn’t it enough that we have claimed victory
Wasn’t it the truth when we have screamed desperately
Isn’t it enough that we have claimed victory
Wasn’t it the truth when we have screamed desperately
We stomp through bodies and the war torn
Isn’t it enough that we have claimed victory for the desperate
Wasn’t it the truth when we have screamed hopelessly
I have been dreaming in colors lately
I keep on climbing and getting nowhere
I’m treading water so close to drowning
Your pulse is stopping and feeding my open mind
Feeding on the souls of the righteous encompassed
Kneeling on the backs that we’ve broken playing god
