Machinae Supremacy - Persona lyrics

Underneath the crushing weight of the world
Is someone searching for a purpose
Play the part that you've been
Dealt by the herd
Mouth and nose beneath the surface
For all the times you held your tongue
And rehearsed Things you would say
If ever brave enough to stand in their way
And all with lies we make our
Beds and sleep Tucked away
Out of sight and out of mind we remain

And you start to paint a picture
Of the world just out of view
Bring it with you as you dream and
Maybe you can wake up too

Do you believe in the world they made for you
Do you belong, or do you try to
Erase yourself just to pass as one of them
A different day today and that was then

Walk the streets with newfound eyes and see
Things from a whole new perspective
Maybe not what you believed you'd be
But something so much more addictive
Put on your new face and run, run
Run Through the night
And take on those who rape and kill and steal
And though the war path hardly knows
Your name All the same
The taste of blood between
Your teeth feels real

And you start to paint a picture
Of the world just out of view
Bring it with you as you dream and
Maybe you can wake up too

Do you believe in the world they made for you
Do you belong, or do you try to
Erase yourself just to pass as one of them
A different day today and that was then

You find it easier to play along
But, you are wrong!
And that is why you need those emo songs
Why don't you get that
You have killed yourself you're in Hell!
And it is your own fault for once as well

Now you start to paint a picture
Of the world just out of view
Bring it with you as you dream and
Maybe you can wake up too

Do you believe in the world they made for you
Do you belong, or do you try to
Erase yourself just to pass as one of them
A different day today and that was then
Do you believe in the world they made for you
Do you belong, or do you try to
Erase yourself just to pass as one of them
A different day today and that was then
