Tekst Utworu

Tattered shirt
A bruised right hand
Excessive thinking
Lacks a plan
He looks back twice
He bites the lure
His leg swings up
A drastic cure
They sold some rules
They promised wealth
Paralysis
No one else helps
Elicit sense
60 percent
Contaminate
Replenishments
They urge him to
Reject his sight
Don't mention it
Don't speak your mind
It comforts him
Thinking he's right
Ignoring fear
He's masked as pride
They fracture truth
They pick and choose
They always win
We always lose
He'll eat it up
Attention seeking
No gut left
But they'll keep asking
What's your value
What's your worth
There they go running their mouth about preying on people like
Decency's become a curse
Where's your empire
Where's your thirst
Once again kicking down everyone's pedestals and then
Pretending they're not any worse
How's your story
Unrehearsed
Modify records
And band-aid the cracks
Make their so-called
Brilliance date back to birth
What's your value
What's your worth
Whining about all the outrage they claw to exploit
Disregarding that they spilled it first
And he'll just double down somehow
And they've forgiven him for now
As long as paper's spread around
As long as braver dread is drowned
Implicit threats wrapped in their worry
Coerce or care the line gets blurry
Weave subtle debts in every story
There's something they aren't telling him
It's covered up laid deep within
He begs and begs to be let in
But they need more of him to bend
All that he's earned he gives away
Bows at their feet most every day
He parts with limb spine heart and grace
And all the rest but they'll keep asking
What's your value
What's your drive
He's spent so much time and his effort defending their dribble
It's ruptured his spirit and mind
Where's your empire
Where's your fight
and when they betray him he lowers his standards while raising
Their image and brainwashing high
How's your story
How's your life
Attend every meeting convention and conference in hopes that they'll
Call out his name in surprise
What's your value
What's your lie
Lustful for no independence and total allegiance
Their horror is his only prize
They don't get to pick our poison
They don't get to skirt their law
They've no right to pilfer strangers
Caught inside their mangled claw
They don't get to dull our voices
Watered down reduced to slop
Infiltrating made up drama
Orchestrate then force a draw
They don't get to wash their hands off
Dissipate remaining flaw
They cant reason past assumption
Must be rabid monkey's paw
They wont stand a slight disruption
Interference final straw
Act then undo
Search don't rescue
Raise a tissue
Place their statue
They do not decide our value
They do not decide our value
