You must, you must have it all You must have it all figured out Its a picture perfect vision of a life Its what weve been taught to dream about Looking down on us with condescending eyes They say what you think They say what you mean Claimed a throne Adorned a crown Its not what you want Its not what you think Take this life you had and throw it away Like everyone else Youre just a victim Distorted vision Defined by corruption Youll just consume yourself Empirical lies Untested untried Forsaken are those Who dont question life Wandering a such a trap like path Allowing yourself to worship this shrine of gold To worship a shrine of gold Youll never find a way to overcome this unfulfillment A golden home that leads to an empty grave A mislead life you dont try and save Youll drown yourself in discontentment You gave away your only choice Sold your soul, all for this shrine of gold You brought this upon yourself We all have our choice You let them take yours Youre nothing more than your crutch Pathetic for knowing But still giving up A mislead life you dont try and save Youll drown yourself in discontentment You gave away your only choice You sold your soul, all for this shrine of gold So come a bit closer The secrets a lie The lie is your life So leave it untold Maybe youll find the truth and throw it away Like everyone else Thrown away Forgotten forsaken Thrown away Just like everyone else Your treading is turning to drowning Fall beneath, fall beneath me Every gasp you take, youll forever choke Grab hold to nothing You can only tread water for so long.
