Vesta Flame - Pressure Lyrics

I'm staring at the ashes of a place I used to know
The promises they told me have turned to dust and blown
They're feeding off our anger and keeping us divided
A cold machine of power we're left here undecided
They play their games with freedom and sell our souls for lies
While we're drowning in confusion feast on our demise
They wrap us up in fear and blind us with the hate
And leave us in the shadows to rot and suffocate

We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
And every time I look around I see the chains they've made
We're fighting for survival but the fight feels like a cage
The more we scream for justice the more they drown us out
A war without an ending a whisper turning to a shout

They fill our minds with poison and flood the air with lies
We're trapped inside their circus crying spinning as we die
But I won't be their puppet I won't bow to their control
They'll never steal the fire that's burning in my soul
We're screaming in the silence they twist the knife inside
Their promises are hollow their truth is always denied
The world's a burning wasteland built on the greed and shame
While we are picking pieces in this never ending game

We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
And every time I look around I see the chains they've made
We're fighting for survival but the fight feels like a cage
The more we scream for justice the more they drown us out
A war without an ending a whisper turning to a shout

They thrive off our destruction our pain is their delight
We against each other is how they justify their fight
Not blind to their chaos I won't fall for their disguise
I'm sharpening my senses cuz I see through all their lies
The cities crumble slowly while they laugh inside their towers
They trade our lives for power while we waste away the hours
I see the streets on fire but they all refuse to see
They'd rather watch us burn than set the captives free

We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
We're breaking under pressure torn apart in every way
In a world that doesn't listen there's nothing left to say
They build their walls around us while we crumble on ground
A broken nation rising but no peace will be found
And every time I look around I see the chains they've made
We're fighting for survival but the fight feels like a cage
The more we scream for justice the more they drown us out
A war without an ending a whisper turning to a shout
