Bread and Circuses

Save yourself from damnation And save your sad explanation The lies you tell, the blood you sell Won't save yourself from damnation Break down their walls High towers, architects of gold, lies, secrets, truth is left untold Point fingers outsource all the blame, claim you're special You're really all the same, white noise, your voice, it drowns me out Fake news alt truth, who's buying now, push the message sell your sickness It's all part of the game, bread and circuses you preach to entertain I am angry, I am broken, the bitterness is left unspoken, the ashes fall The martyr burns, you've passed the point of no return, my hands are shaking My soul is blackened, shout through the darkness, stop this madness You feed the fire with your hate, you cry to God but you're too late The innocent all burn, your thoughts and prayers Their hearts and minds are all symbolic of the waste that we have earned Does anybody really listen? Does anybody really care? Plug in and bear, a fact's a fact, a lie's a lie, your false perception intertwined We all give in, we all crave more, denial the beast that we adore I am angry, I am broken, the bitterness is left unspoken, the ashes fall The martyr burns, you've passed the point of no return, my hands are shaking My soul is blackened, shout through the darkness, stop this madness You feed the fire with your hate, you cry to God but you're too late I'll take your weakness, I'll fight the sickness, I'll take everything you took from me Break down their walls Save yourself from damnation And save your sad explanation The lies you tell, the blood you sell Won't save yourself from damnation Damnation
