rewind22x - POUND Lyrics

That feeling you get when we wake up in the morning
And can't believe how wrong your life feels now
We were in the grandest of dreams
And now the walls have crumbled down
What can't I say that we haven't heard before
A sensational prop will crown us a king
Oppression for all is a matter of time
Bend the knee and kiss the ring

You are in for a pinch the poor are in for a pound
Living off of your wealth the rest stand up and drown
Cannot visualize what is wrong with the world
While the markets are up you don't care if it burns
Try and meet you halfway it is never enough
They have made your stand and you don't care if it's rough
So when you're down on your knees and you don't know why
The knives came out see the truth in their eyes

Mocking those who knew what they signed up for
That's pretty rich you've never worked a day in the life
Lies and deceit paved the way to the top
No one will mourn the day the end comes and you're caught
Yet you are getting what your mind desires
Your name is on the lips of everyone's mouth
Retching the taste of rot from my tongue
I fear the flavor will linger long

You are in for a pinch the poor are in for a pound
Living off of your wealth the rest stand up and drown
Cannot visualize what is wrong with the world
While the markets are up you don't care if it burns
Try and meet you halfway it is never enough
They have made your stand and you don't care if it's rough
So when you're down on your knees and you don't know why
The knives came out see the truth in their eyes

You are in for a pinch the poor are in for a pound
Living off of your wealth the rest stand up and drown
Cannot visualize what is wrong with the world
While the markets are up you don't care if it burns
Try and meet you halfway it is never enough
They have made your stand and you don't care if it's rough
So when you're down on your knees and you don't know why
The knives came out see the truth in their eyes
