Independence
I hear what your saying
I know where your coming from
You twisted up the meanings
I cant believe you anymore
First you want my money
Now you want my soul
Put me on display
In your carnival of fools
We shared a common thread
And you've pulled on my strings
You watched me dance around
To the hateful song you sing
You told me my desires desires
Then you told me what I need
Then you cut me and you sold me
Bandages to feed your greed
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to marbled halls
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became criminals
Subvert the reigning paradigm
I can think for myself
Sing to me in silence
For the final time
Hold my hand and tell me
It's OK to be alone
Shredded vows now hurt me
Clothe my thoughts in corduroy
Can I make it any better
Will I suffer anymore
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to marbled halls
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to hallowed halls
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became criminals
Subvert the reigning paradigm
I can think for myself
From main street to marbled halls
I know where your coming from
You twisted up the meanings
I cant believe you anymore
First you want my money
Now you want my soul
Put me on display
In your carnival of fools
We shared a common thread
And you've pulled on my strings
You watched me dance around
To the hateful song you sing
You told me my desires desires
Then you told me what I need
Then you cut me and you sold me
Bandages to feed your greed
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to marbled halls
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became criminals
Subvert the reigning paradigm
I can think for myself
Sing to me in silence
For the final time
Hold my hand and tell me
It's OK to be alone
Shredded vows now hurt me
Clothe my thoughts in corduroy
Can I make it any better
Will I suffer anymore
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to marbled halls
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
From main street to hallowed halls
When my thoughts became a crime
I became a criminal
Truth will go unrecognized
Once our thoughts became a crime
We all became criminals
Subvert the reigning paradigm
I can think for myself
From main street to marbled halls
