Testo Mouthpiece - Protest the Hero
Testo della canzone Mouthpiece (Protest the Hero), tratta dall'album Within
When caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You won't find me anywhere within that binary
Not drifting further out and thrashing violently
Relentlessly surrendering my being
There is no virtue, no free will, no god
To prevent me from this dying old break
Just the ache in my limbs growing heavy with time
And the persistent temptation to break
And without disillusions
We reach out our hand as we fall
And as darkness closes around us
We stand tall
Make up, make way
Suffer the very same fate
To God intend to bear witness
One heart disciplines
Suffer impending doom regardless of vantage
Perspectives are formed and carefully managed
We're treating the illness, ignoring the source
The water is boiling, we drink it like poison
In a world of vivid color, our eyes are made gray
Until all the hues of summer fade away (blind from your mind)
An eternal winter around every dinner table
Cold and useless conversations
Cold and useless conversations
So fucking laugh it up boys
But just leave me out of it
This endless procession
This tireless bullshit
We never had a choice
Raised to be sycophants
Bend the knee, fucking kiss the hand that
Kiss the hand that feeds
When caught between the devil and the deep blue sea
You won't find me anywhere within that binary
Not drifting further out and thrashing violently
Just hold my hand and walk the fuck away
Make up, make way
Suffer the very same
Make up, make way
Suffer the very same fate
To God intend to bear witness
One heart disciplines
Suffer impending doom, regardless of vantage
Perspectives are formed and carefully managed
We're treating the illness, ignoring the source
The water is boiling, we drink it like poison
In a world of vivid color our eyes are made gray
Until all the hues of summer fade away (blind from your mind)
An eternal winter around every dinner table
Cold and useless conversations
Cold and useless conversations
There's powerful voices
Screaming culture war, culture war
And the powerful voices
Make you feel powerless
But you're ill-informed
Powerful voices
Sowing division, division
Powerful voices
Anything that divides us should burn, oh
Everything that divides us should burn trust
And all these conversations will strangle us like weeds
But we're not powerless, we're just a little bit naïve
(Make up, make way) endure a culture war
(Make up, make way) it's to ensure that we
(Make up, make way) are too distracted to
(Make up, make way) identify the enemy
(Make up, make way) sit across the aisle
(Make up, make way) a manufactured enemy
(Make up, make way) eat fucking shit and smile
(Make up, make way) suffer the very same fate
