Your thin facade
And vapid display
We’re just a breath away
From our final days
Our freedoms
Lock us in this state
Without a voice
Failures
Take me higher
Open secrets
Kept in prisms
A glass display
Suspects the same
Fears and angst
Your guilt and your shame
Without a thought
Your will’s cast aside
Just a placeholder
Watching us watching them
Watching you watching me burn
Again
Failures
Take me higher
Open secrets
Kept in prisms
Your failures
Take me higher
They’re watching
With five eyes open
Return to me
(Break it down)
Return in spite of this
Return to me
(Cast it out)
Return these flames
Return to me
(Break it down)
Return these flames
Watching us, watching them
Watch me burn
Return these flames
(Pesticide)
It’s in the breaths you take
(Falsified)
It’s in the words you say
(Justified)
It’s in the steps you take
(Cyanide)
It’s in this mess you’ve made
Failures
Take me higher
Open secrets
Kept in prisms
Your failures
Take me higher
They’re watching
With five eyes open
