lyrics
Can't break the surface to breathe
Won't stop 'til I'm underground
Your silence speaks volumes
I have seen your true face
Unified, to conquer and divide
No sides, just fences for the tribe
Fraught with fraud
And fought with false pride
So content to float through life
Can’t break the surface to breathe
When your intention is to see me bleed
I’ll cut these ties with my teeth
Everything around me
Is sinking in a sea of broken dreams
Watch me drown
Won’t stop 'til I’m underground
Charge them
Cut their heads off
Watch the bodies drop
I still reach for the nothingness
Pull the knife from my back
Bearing your name
At least then I know where I’m standing
We are led
By the least among us
We are dead
(We are fucking dead)
If we don’t stand up
Sat atop your ivory tower
(Stand down)
Oblivious to the poverty beneath
Clawing at the walls for our freedom
(Stand down)
I refuse to live like this
Can’t break the surface to breathe
When your intention is to see me bleed
I’ll cut these ties with my teeth
Everything around me
Is sinking in a sea of broken dreams
Watch me drown
Won’t stop 'til I’m underground
Fading out is the light inside my eyes
Your legacy means nothing if there’s no one left alive
You want an enemy?
Look in the mirror
Cut your own fucking throat
I won't stand down
Cut your own fucking throat
I won't stand down
Can’t break the surface to breathe
When your intention is to see me bleed
I’ll cut these ties with my teeth
Everything around me
Is sinking in a sea of broken dreams
Watch me drown
Won’t stop 'til I’m underground
