Dread Apparitions
Conformity
Shattering yourself to fit into this mold
You are a thief, only stealing from yourself
What does a profit a mendicant the world, but to lose his own soul
Endlessly pursuing the American dream
Destroy yourself to achieve a goal that is not even yours
And in the end you're just a shadow of yourself
You sold your soul just to be like someone else
We must break this cycle
Is it your fear that chokes your ambitions
Is it the fear that makes you machine
The fear of failure has stopped you from trying
You've given up and will never succeed
(I swear by my life and the love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man
Or ask another man to live for mine)
We've reached our breaking point
No longer will I stand in a state, but defiant
I swear to return to a sea of self reliance
No longer will I stand in a state, but defiant
We have reached our breaking point
Shattering yourself to fit into this mold
You are a thief, only stealing from yourself
What does a profit a mendicant the world, but to lose his own soul
Endlessly pursuing the American dream
Destroy yourself to achieve a goal that is not even yours
And in the end you're just a shadow of yourself
You sold your soul just to be like someone else
We must break this cycle
Is it your fear that chokes your ambitions
Is it the fear that makes you machine
The fear of failure has stopped you from trying
You've given up and will never succeed
(I swear by my life and the love of it that I will never live for the sake of another man
Or ask another man to live for mine)
We've reached our breaking point
No longer will I stand in a state, but defiant
I swear to return to a sea of self reliance
No longer will I stand in a state, but defiant
We have reached our breaking point
