Riot Of Words
This is the moment when we choose to stand upright and direct
Set the course of our vision, new spirit in the flesh
To the rich man's law that break the poor man's back again
Dead-eyed, but unbroken
Society's cruel mask upon the meaningless face
The arrogant false prophets of the human race
Rising to the surface, hear the waters make the sound
Dead-eyed, but unbroken now
Are you dead-eyed, but unbroken?
Are you feeling alive in the dead world they've made?
Are you working for a promise?
Are you working for the promise already betrayed?
While the dreams of the nation
Are just a weapon in our hearts, now
We can defy the curse of self-righteousness
No more culture-less emptiness
Pull back to reach the moment where connection was lost
The greater the freedom, the higher the cost
Drinking organic insurrection, cleanse the mind, mind the heart
Droplets falling, faith and courage, and fire in our hearts
Rising to the surface, hear the waters make the sound
Dead-eyed, but unbroken
Minds once set to fight now rot bloodless upon their stem
To update the paranoia, the media disguise the system
With designer clothes and violence, regulate our birthright
Dead-eyed, but unbroken now
Are we dead-eyed, but unbroken?
Yeah, we're feeling alive in the dead world they've made
Are you working for a promise?
Yeah, I'm working for a promise already betrayed
While the dreams of the nation
Are just a weapon in our hearts, now
Colors on the TV
They push the lie in all things some of us bleed against
This deception stays entrenched
Did you start, did you start to believe in it?
Colors of the ruling class
Push the lie in all things some of us bleed against
This deception stays entrenched
Did you start, did you start to believe in it?
Are you dead-eyed from the sight of no future?
Broken-handed from working for a promise betrayed?
But we can disarm!
But we can disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm! Disarm! Disarm now!
Set the course of our vision, new spirit in the flesh
To the rich man's law that break the poor man's back again
Dead-eyed, but unbroken
Society's cruel mask upon the meaningless face
The arrogant false prophets of the human race
Rising to the surface, hear the waters make the sound
Dead-eyed, but unbroken now
Are you dead-eyed, but unbroken?
Are you feeling alive in the dead world they've made?
Are you working for a promise?
Are you working for the promise already betrayed?
While the dreams of the nation
Are just a weapon in our hearts, now
We can defy the curse of self-righteousness
No more culture-less emptiness
Pull back to reach the moment where connection was lost
The greater the freedom, the higher the cost
Drinking organic insurrection, cleanse the mind, mind the heart
Droplets falling, faith and courage, and fire in our hearts
Rising to the surface, hear the waters make the sound
Dead-eyed, but unbroken
Minds once set to fight now rot bloodless upon their stem
To update the paranoia, the media disguise the system
With designer clothes and violence, regulate our birthright
Dead-eyed, but unbroken now
Are we dead-eyed, but unbroken?
Yeah, we're feeling alive in the dead world they've made
Are you working for a promise?
Yeah, I'm working for a promise already betrayed
While the dreams of the nation

Did you start, did you start to believe in it?
Are you dead-eyed from the sight of no future?
Broken-handed from working for a promise betrayed?
But we can disarm!
But we can disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm!
Disarm! Disarm! Disarm now!
