Alongside your cradles it's crept up like a plague
Now you're their captives, you don't know you should escape
So you lash out, it's the only path you see
But this isn't war, this is supposed to be a team
So end your violence, drop the stones and arrows
Claw your way out from where they've burrowed
They lied to you while they gave you everything
They said you'd be the greatest the world has ever seen
Now you lead a soft life and that runs counter to your claims
Your greed and destruction packaged up as higher aims
We could have been gone, we could have been so far ahead
But you build a new world, forget all the injured and the dead
So end your violence, drop the stones and arrows
Claw your way out from where they've burrowed
They lied to you while they gave you everything
They said you'd be the greatest the world has ever seen
They lied to you and told you you'd be kings and queens
They said you'd be the greatest the world has ever seen
They lied to you while they gave you everything
They said you'd be the greatest the world has ever seen
This time of limitation is meant to be pushed through
And everything they said you know was never true
They lied to you and told you you'd be kings and queens
They said you'd be the greatest the world has ever seen
You never will
