Insecurity

They were painting pictures for the blind
Miming hate before the deaf
I was reading in between the lines
Saw no difference right or left

Write off rhetorical absurdities
Standing by with no regret
Till one day you commit atrocities
All ideals now left bereft
All your ideals are left bereft I'd have to say

Did you go along
Just to get along
Traded away your freedoms for false security
Deep down inside
Deep down you know that is wrong

Preach your manifest destiny
All while standing on their necks
If you don't bend they may break you too
Just Another pawn they'll have to check

You don't think you're wrong
No, just show em that your strong
Those you swore to protect and serve they're under-served
You weren't taught and
And no you'll never learn

You're living outside
I'm looking inside
I don't see a man
For you don't have any self respect
And when your shakedown
Became your take down
You gambled far too much
And lost every goddamn bet
Yeah, yeah

Burned all you ideals
I'd say it's safe to say
Burned all your ideals
Can't see it any other way
Burned all you ideals
Validity has burned away
You burned all your ideals
