歌词
we trusted you
state of grace
an ideal you embrace
the weight of history
it only serves their aims
you close your eyes
try to escape
you had a chance to change it
but now it’s too late
they talk of law and order
the cost of being safe
you looked the other way
you talk of pride and honor
then surrender like a child
have you nothing else to say?
today at four / they’re kicking down your door
10 years of misery you can’t hide anymore
you close your eyes / but it’s too late
you had the chance to change it / one chance to escape
they talk of blood and valor
a farce that seals your fate
the memories just fade
you act on spite and instinct
put the whole world on trial
through a lens ten shades of grey
they talk of power and glory
which only breeds more hate
you just turn tail to flee the fray
you reek of shame and despair
but still you fan the flames
you wouldn’t have it any other way
you’re rotting out / you’re running scared
you’re feeling scorned / your cross is bared
your empty carcass is refuge for the meek
you’re feeling broken / we’re getting bored
it’s everything that you’ve ignored
that’s brought you right here
to this place on your knees
we trusted you
