Pain That Binds Us

I'm puzzled everyday to see the world is upside down Punished honesty, while crooks rejoice in wealth Meeting ends has become a living nightmare Stripped of dignity, survival's all that matters In silence the system will devour you Your stillness is destined to desert you We're losing our minds but not our souls On the brink of desperation I cry out for hope Awaken now Join me brothers and resist I promise you tonight we'll make a difference Relieve us all from the injustice borne within Together we are strong This can't go on, we must resist Bred like rats by shepherds Scourging underground Living off the scraps which they provide Sentenced to oblivion Shouting at the walls Seeking out the knowledge they deny In silence the system will corrupt you Your stillness will certainly allow you We're losing our minds but not our souls On the brink of desperation We hold on to hope Awaken now Join me brothers and resist I promise you tonight we'll make a difference Relieve us all from the injustice borne within Together we are strong We can't go on living like this Come with me Don't let me down We've come too far to turn around We fight for something beautiful, you see The pain that binds us will set us free
