The Badge

Tethered to a line that I cross all the time
No one comprehends how much I bend it to be mine
Choosing to align, its not just us, the swine
Agreed like legion we're so petty, seem so ready

Never told to die for my beliefs
Under the weight I've struggled to save my own mediocrity
We were sold, full transparency
Into the cage my body enslaved inside of a war machine

Never solved a crime cause I can't cross the line
I make sure every demons ready, seems so civilized
Knee deep in the grime, what a waste of time
With dreams so heavy seems so genuine

Never told to die for my beliefs
Under the weight I've struggled to save my own mediocrity
We were sold, full transparency
Into the cage my body enslaved inside of a war machine
Distorting me

Wait for the sympathy to embellish me, gently
Invite the loneliness to grow right out of spite

To die for my beliefs
Under the weight I've struggled to save my own mediocrity
Full transparency
Into the cage my body enslaved inside of a war machine

Growing old, time to break the leash
Under the weight of all of the chains they know are exhausting me
Broken bones, no one talks to me
Into the cage my body behaves like it was myopathy
Distorting me
Destroying me
