You hold yourself high preaching dreams of prosperity
Shrouding yourself in false security
Cutting lives short with deceitful decrees
Are you scared of what we could be?
Your promises glitter like fool's gold in the sun
A warped useless vessel is what we become
The straws you lay out a rigged game from the start
Crushing my dreams as my life's torn apart
What do you get out of this charade?
Feeding on our hopes leaving us betrayed
You preach prosperity yet sow seeds of despair
Do you revel in the chaos the pain you bear?
How should we deal with lives cut short
These unjust scales cannot be fought
You play your games and treat us like pawns
Making us something horrible
Dreams are our only reprise
From failing bodies and gloomy skies
The pyre is eternal
Reborn as something beautiful
What do you get out of this charade?
Feeding on our hopes leaving us betrayed
You preach prosperity yet sow seeds of despair
Do you revel in the chaos the pain you bear?
We are born to die struggle to survive
Forced to play your endless games where none come out alive
We are born to die struggle to survive
Forced to play your endless games where none come out alive
You can't save me
What do you get out of this charade?
Feeding on our hopes leaving us betrayed
You preach prosperity yet sow seeds of despair
Do you revel in the chaos the pain you bear?
What do you get out of this charade?
Feeding on our hopes leaving us betrayed
You preach prosperity yet sow seeds of despair
Do you revel in the chaos the pain you bear?
