Hollow Puppets

Slaves to a future drowned in apathy
Blood feeds the base of this glorified tyranny
Chaos crawls from your mouths like rats from the shade
Scheming in darkness wearing your crown of hate

Our fear fuels your engine of chaos
(Thrown into the dirt)
Our voices fail but nothing will save us

The power you wield is not your own
Hollow puppets upon a false throne
The strings that control you are made of lies
Nothing too holy to be sacrificed

Wars you lead from safety
But they still make us bleed

Choice is non-existent in this world you created
Any and all criticism dies upon our lips
Empty promises sustained your rise to control
Violence and subterfuge grow inside your soul

Our fear fuels your engine of chaos (Thrown into the dirt)
Our voices fail but nothing will save us

The power you wield is not your own
Hollow puppets upon a false throne
The strings that control you are made of lies
Nothing too holy to be sacrificed

A restless effort to make us bow
All we are to you is stones in your plough
Foul courts plan the world's demise
Stealing the light from our children's eyes

So much weight upon our shoulders
We will never break
See us rise as the wind grows colder
Watch us come awake
Come awake

You cannot hold us back

Destroy your creed
We will make you bleed
Your heads will roll
We will take control

We will take control

The power you wield is not your own
Hollow puppets upon a false throne
The strings that control you are made of lies
Nothing too holy to be sacrificed

A restless effort to make us bow
All we are to you is stones in your plough
Foul courts plan the world's demise
Stealing the light from our children's eyes

Destroy your creed
We will make you bleed
Your heads will roll
We will take control
