SOULED OUT

You don't get to turn it off
You don't get to look away
If this is what your money bought
Then you don't get to hide your face

You better stay, open your eyes
It's not war when you're fighting a child
So don't you lie, don't you lie, don't you lie
Sold your soul now you can't buy it back
You won't wash away blood stains like that

Repenting sins on Sundays
In their murder suits
Catch 'em on the news
The façade is see-through (we see you)
Just killers in costumes
Deciding what's legal (we see you)
Deciding who's worth being saved
And picking bloodlines to erase
Is it so easy to switch off the pain like a TV?

It's controversial now
We're told to toe the line
While all their tongues are tied
Their tanks are occupying what is left
Don't forget they sell out for a salary
Watch 'em pretend that they cared in the eulogy

But I should shut my mouth right? (right)
Stop talking 'bout what I don't know about right? (right)
They say we're free
But only 'til we bite right? (Don't like when we unite right?)
Only 'til we want a better life right?
(Don't bring up human rights)

You better stay, open your eyes
Don't you care about the people who die?
Oh it's a crime, it's crime, it's a crime
When you look in the mirror you'll see
You've become who you swore not to be
Sold your soul for a seat on the throne
Don't you know land is not yours to own

You don't get to turn it off
You don't get to look away
If this is what you're standing for
Then come look at the mess you've made
