The Hand That Feeds
Unveiling the Shadows: A Journey Through the Hollow Heart
Lyrics
You're keeping in step
You conform and follow along
In the line
In the established order or system
Got your chin held high and you feel just fine
You maintain a proud demeanor, feeling content
'Cause you do
Because you adhere to instructions
What you're told
Doing what is instructed or expected
But inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold
Yet internally, your heart is dark, hollow, and cold
Just how deep do you believe?
Questioning the depth of your belief
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Are you willing to rebel against those providing for you?
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Are you willing to persist until it causes harm?
Can you get up off your knees?
Can you rise from subservience?
Are you brave enough to see?
Do you have the courage to confront the truth?
Do you wanna change it?
Do you desire change?
What if this whole crusade's a charade
Suggesting the possibility that the cause is deceptive
And behind it all there's a price to be paid
Implying hidden consequences for the actions taken
For the blood on which we dine
Referring to the bloodshed involved
Justified in the name of the holy and the divine
Claiming justification in the name of the holy and divine
Just how deep do you believe?
Repeating the questioning of belief depth
Will you bite the hand that feeds?
Reiterating the willingness to rebel against authority
Will you chew until it bleeds?
Reiterating the willingness to persist despite consequences
Can you get up off your knees?
Repeating the challenge to rise from subservience
Are you brave enough to see?
Reiterating the call to face the harsh reality
Do you wanna change it?
Repeating the question about the desire for change
So naive
Describing someone as overly trusting and innocent
I keep holding on to what I wanna believe
The speaker struggles to maintain belief in something they want to be true
I can see
The speaker can perceive the reality
But I keep holding on and on and on and on
Despite awareness, the speaker continues to hold on
Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
Repetition of the questions, emphasizing the internal conflict and the choice to rebel or submit
Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
-Will you bite the hand that feeds you?
-Will you stay down on your knees?
