We are the blow that buckles your knees

Your eyes aren't open

You'll never be set free

And every line we fear to cross will begin to blur

And if you live by the pen, you will die by the sword

Your voice is unwelcome here

You will be silenced by the horde

Ties that bind us, keeping us secure

Lies to hide us, deep inside your haven, your hive

We are the words that are lodged in the back of your throat, waiting to break through your teeth

Stand convinced with no conviction that we are cursed beyond a cure

Your voice is unwelcome here

You will be silenced by the horde

Ties that bind us, keeping us secure

Lies to hide us, deep inside your haven, your hive

So drink, drink deep, and die in the hive

It's so hard to find the truth in silence

Untie your tongue and clear the air that pollutes your ears

Ties that bind us, keeping us secure

Lies to hide us, deep inside your haven, your hive

This place you've chosen to hide, your haven, your hive

This place we've come to destroy, the haven, the hive
