lyrics

Burn the witch

With every generation there is a moment for us to do what is right
Through our thoughts of dismay
Will we refuse to burn the witch?
Hopefully we don’t end up in a ditch that we dug ourselves
Through our thoughts of dismay
Will we refuse to burn the witch?

There are those
Who wish to breed out humanity?
There are those
That control our perception of reality
We feed the system to watch it shatter
We use bones to build this structure

Try to eat my soul inside, but I refuse to hide
Open up your eyes, it’s about both sides

Nothing good can come from this forced design
I rake my brain with such distaste, helpless and passive
We wander through the pretense
Why should we sit in this filth?

Won't stand for
A foundation of hate
Won't stand for
All forged in the shadows
Trained to jump before the cracking whip
Chained to the cables, wishing we were dead

Try to eat my soul inside, but I refuse to hide
Stop all the lies, it's how we deny

You’re like a cancer, replicating decay
You void the answers, buried with the remains
You suffocate me, as you tighten the noose
You leave me no choice, to rip out the fuse

Take back my life

I will blame you
You have come to
See the mad man
I will push Fear from you

We’ve become the pariah
Stop the addiction, this sickness, rotting out your insides
Cauterize the wounds or begin the death march
Left, right, left
A step at a time, not much farther to climb
Give up your will and swallow the pill

You’re like a cancer, replicating decay
You void the answers, buried with the remains
You suffocate me, as you tighten the noose
You leave me no choice, to rip out the fuse
Take back my life
