Outright - Tyrants & Vultures текст песни

Исполнитель: Outright

альбом: Keep You Warm


Check out these new stone boots
We're asked to swim in
Despair, our shackles
With hope wearing thin
As kingmakers stand
Watching empires fall
We just accept
Brainwashed and enthralled
We'll keep biding our time
Biting our tongues
Until blood fills our lungs
Mesmerized by our greed
Lathered in snake oil
The lies we've believed
Hoarding meaningless wealth
With a sense of growing dread
We find ourselves tempered by tyrants and vultures
Who feed off the living and gorge on the dead
The ballot or the bullet
Aggravating "white" noise
Other voices are drowned
In the deafening sound
Proof replaced by belief
The people's will stolen
By a popular thief
Disinformation
Widens the gap
Truth in the eye of the 'bot' holder
A critical thinking lapse
Lacking empathy
The discourse gets colder
Encouraging coward bigots
Now becoming bolder
Spoon fed our biases as truth
Deliberate lies
Become proof instead
We find ourselves tempered by tyrants and vultures
Who feed off the living and gorge on the dead
A failing culture of lies
Built on fear in the guise
Of security offering salvation
We're all complicit as dull lives
Idly pass by
Too distracted, afraid
We edge forward to isolation
Reap what we've sown
Think or be overthrown
