lyrics

Where are we
Placed in time
The moon is high

A Rising tide
Raise everyone
But what would happen
If we had no technology
No ship to sail at sea
The raging waters
Will consume every thing we see

Would we be free without the limits of society
Or would we burn in the fires of desire
Does chaos mean our better parts will overcome
Or burn the world in greed and fire
We'd be like sheep to the slaughter
Ugh
Out there be wolves deceiving with a silver tongue
exploiting those with weaker minds to eat their young
While We could run to the mountains or the valleys
But they know the chase is better than the kill
Ugh

Life is
Is not the same
Is not the same as when we play
Play by their rules
A different point of view
Shall lead to unbecoming

Behold
The glorious
The glory of our time
Refining from the soil
It's buried deep
The savior of our tribe prepare to die
Run for your lives
You philistines deserve no right
No way of life
It's not for me to say
If you should live or die

It's not my fault (repeat)

We could rise up if we could look beyond
The differences that make us whole
But fear and hate will always get between
A dash of greed to fill the hole
To make us ripe for the harvest

The vultures come
And they descend
The vultures come
And they descend

Life is threatening the business plan
Embrace the fodder with cyanide

This world is simple
It's based on need
You know nothing in life is guaranteed

Fight, the struggling is all you have left
To leave the empty moments somewhat less hollow
Fear breeds something so common
The panic stricken stand in awe

This world is simple
It's based on need
You know nothing in life is guaranteed
We're all so simple
It's based on greed
You know nothing in life is fucking free
