lyrics

I used to think…that
I’d give my life…for
Your paradise…but
It’s rotten, free of freedom…

I...won’t…be bought…won’t be caught…in peddler’s circle

Held my head to the ground
I thought I…
Could direct my mind
I said I…
Would stop myself
From being…
Something you…possessed

Nothing…
Wasn’t worth a damn but I hold my head up

Can you say you lived your life well…
Or were a slave to pleasure

You brought me here…to
Sell me my own…soul
With a crooked smile…drop
Coins in my hand with a blade behind your back

You…can’t…forget…what it means…to be unfettered

Held my head to the ground
I thought I…
Could direct my mind
I said I…Oh God…
Would stop myself
From being…
Something you…possessed…why…(hold into bridge)

Throw it off…your peace is strangling me…
Pain…there’s no life with-out pain…

I thought I knew, but I…
Held my head to the ground
I thought I…
Could direct my mind
I said I…

Nothing…
Wasn’t worth a damning second of your time
Worthless…
Living for a god that you cannot even name
Functionless…
Beyond a thought for function
Merciless…
In protecting what you’ve got.
