The Eternal Lie

Weekends seem to pass us by with a flash
Paychecks lead to cars that lead to a crash
Have our fill our engines fueled with the gas
Forces lead us to our nightmare at last
Bomb the roads and highways, blazing & red
Feel the pulse of the earth, the pulse in your head
Now detach your will, throw it into the fire
To live undead your one & only desire

I've been broken before, now I've taken a few steps back
I laid rest to everyone, they couldn't do me anything but harm
Always remember the ones that pushed me aside
No one to guide this shaken mind, they thought for sure it was only a phase
I discovered that life is seldom kind
is what we're living an eternal lie?
What we're working for, an 'increase,' is it falsified?
A wage, misunderstood as good despite the truth
We're taking drugs to meet the drugs that do exist inside
Because they seem to help us get it back
Cause what we're working for is increase and it's falsified
A wage, misunderstood as good despite the truth
I've been locked up before, now I've taken a different track
I made the pieces into one, I passed the hours living on the run
Always remember the ones that put me inside
No one to guide this shaken mind
they thought for sure it was only a phase
I discovered that life is never kind
that what we live is an eternal lie
