Lyrics
The speech doesn't reach
The spoken words are ineffective or ignored.
The killing doesn't fix
Killing doesn't solve problems.
No one is free from the fate
No one can escape destiny or consequences.
That a few men force us to take
A small group of men impose choices on others.
Over-paid and over-weight
People in power are both overpaid and overweight.
A population not one creates
A populace not responsible for its creation.
Ill heart that can't love no more
An emotionally numb society.
The whole state closing down its doors
The entire state is shutting down or closing off.
All lost, we are all lost
A sense of being lost collectively.
Our path is filled with no end
An endless path without direction.
What will become?
An uncertain future is questioned.
It's just more of the same
Repetition of a monotonous and unchanging situation.
You're just a part of the game
Individuals are just pawns in a larger scheme.
We lost our hope in you
Hope has been lost in those in power.
False words deceive and lie
Deceptive and false statements.
Bleeding pages from the paper
Corruption and falsehoods evident in written records.
Can't wash your hands
Unable to cleanse one's guilt or responsibility.
It's just more of the same
Continuation of a repetitive and stagnant situation.
You're just a part of the game
Individuals are mere components of a manipulated system.
We lost our trust/hope in you
Trust or hope is lost in those in power.
You cowards, backstabbers, no trust in you
Addressing those who lack courage and betray trust.
The words are clear for those who care
Clear messages for those who genuinely care.
Never thought it could mean so much
Realization of the unexpected significance of words.
For those who care
Emphasis on the importance of caring individuals.
You're the ones who created all the fear
Attributing the creation of fear to specific individuals.
You're the ones who deny we're all here
Denial of shared existence by certain individuals.
I think it's time to open our eyes
A call to awaken and perceive reality.
Our minds were closed for most of our lives
Recognition of closed minds throughout life.
Always seemed so real
Past experiences that seemed authentic.
Controlling what we feel
External control over emotions and perceptions.
You never thought it could happen this way
Unexpected unfolding of events.
Exercise our right to make it right
Advocacy for exercising the right to correct wrongs.
It's just more of the same
Reiteration of an unchanging and predictable situation.
You're just a part of the game
Individuals are components manipulated by those in power.
