lyrics

We tow the line
to keep us right where we belonged all along
some say it’s not easy to be free
well I say it’s not easy being me
we’ll take the sound further than you know
they’ll slip the slide from
radical, to cynical, to selfish
can we rebound or will we drown

lay it up
I soak it in
I fill my cup
and I stay in
The world is too loud to enter
open up, suck it in, swallow
spit it all out
the medicine is sorrow
wash your mouth out, let it go
lose yourself and follow
the drugs make it easier to let go
and follow

bless the martyrs, they’re burning bright
like the stars light up our skies
let the words and actions echo throughout time
kill the saviors elevate the dictators
it’s who we are
just vibrations in a song

And I could
yes I could talk all day
on all of our problems and my misfortune
a droplet in a wave
tongue tied and restrained
I want no part of this ocean
I want to be saved

But I can’t even get up
and if I did, well what then?
what’s the purpose
when there’s no direction
I’m so tired
I’m so fucking tired I want to die
I feel I’m all out of fight
I don’t know why I even cling to life
Guess I fear what’s on the other side
Is the devil I know really better though?
you know, the one who says:

so can you sell out again
sell out your self
yeah, you’re barely worth the cents
but it’s for your health
you need water
you need bread
you need shelter
you need confidence
status is what defines you
and status is defined by them

bless the martyrs, they’re burning bright
like their scars light up our skies
let the words and actions echo throughout time
kill the saviors elevate the dictators
it’s who we are
just vibrations in a song
