It only takes one heartbreak to numb a man
Now I'm desensitised
I consider this more of a blessing than a hindrance
Mercy me
I'm so callous compared to what I used to be
What I used to be
I am not the man you thought i was
I've tried countless times to channel these thoughts into a single song or verse
To exorcise the way I feel
But our scenario is too complex
How can you say the grass is greener?
Although my hindsight was impared
I believed you when you said you never meant for this to happen
As raindrops sound against my window
Holding off my sleep a little more
I start to think to myself
I have become a representative of everything I used to stand against
Your absence sent shockwaves through the ether
I've tried countless times to channel these thoughts into a single song or verse
To exorcise the way I feel
But our scenario is too complex
How can you say the grass is greener?
I can't keep doing this
Back and forth
I am not the man you thought I was

Don't give up on me
Nothing is permanent
But hope doesn't exist between these walls
There must be more to life than this
I can't stay here forever
I've spent days wondering when I'll leave this place
I need an escape
This time is ours
We will never let this dream die, this is our calling
You will never take that from us
Sick and tired of taking orders from lesser beings
I won't end up like you
Frown upon me all you want, I'll prove you wrong
You cannot anchor me to a place I didn't choose
You cannot anchor me to this place
Only you can save us now
This monotony will never hold us down
If i could go back, I wouldn't change a thing
Cause what i have today means more to me than anything
Now I can leave this behind
You cannot anchor me
All the dreamers, they never meant anything to me
If i could go back, I wouldn't change a thing
Cause what i have today means more to me than anything
Please don't give up on me

Say hello to a proud nation of good-for-nothings
Our society's a utopia for the bone idle majority
Those of us keeping this afloat
Are stripped of respect we'd have had years ago
While the rest reap the benefits
Of a weakened state
Democracy is failing us
Because the public has become a nation of ignorant, self-righteous pigs
Quick to point the finger
At those who are brought into our domain
When you're the ones who've been sinking this ship all along
I don't know who's worse
The hand that feeds or the ones being fed
Humankind is no longer evidence for survival of the fittest
You're breeding a moral-free generation where ignorance is rewarded
You're breeding a moral-free generation where prejudice is ignored
Stand down, you have run this place into the ground
Quick to point the finger
At those who are brought into our domain
When you're the ones who've been sinking this ship all along
I don't know who's worse
The hand that feeds or the ones being fed
