Castles High, Earth on Fire (Demo)

Bury my head to stop my ears from ringing

Close my eyes to stop my brain from thinking

Don't want to hear about another bombing

World's on fire, but I'm not listening

We're drowning in the static, too numb to fight

Scroll through the headlines, the truth's out of sight

We're fed blatant lies and most take the bait

Cos' it's easier to let others decide our fate

They build their castles high, while we're stuck in the dirt

We fight each other while they burn the Earth

So they tell us who to blame, hide away their billfold

We dig our own graves while they hoard the gold

I shall be a good soldier

I will have no desires

In your space, don't make waves

Bend your head, you're not brave

They chant about borders, ignoring the sea

Flooded with the corpses of humanity

Profits over people, distractions galore

And the clock is ticking louder than ever before

Don't know who to believe in this fucking masquerade

I'm smothered by these endless crusades

We're just like pawns in a rigged-up chess game

Trading our future for someone else's fame

I shall be a good soldier

I will have no desires

In your space, don't make waves

Bend your head, you're not brave

The air is thick with the weight of their lies

But sparks ignite when the hopeless rise

No more silence, no more chains

We'll tear it all down and start over again

It's time to burn the script, rewrite the story

Light the match, reclaim the glory

We've been silent for far too long

Now's the time to right the wrong

I shall be a good soldier

I will have no desires

In your space, don't make waves

Bend your head, you're not brave

Hear my call

Break the wall

Stand up tall

Change it all

Hear my call

Break the wall

Stand up tall

Change it all
