Protest The Hero - An Apathetic New World lyrics
[Protest The Hero - An Apathetic New World lyrics]
Tonight I sat alone on the steps and stared
Into the blank sky stars cloaked by smog
The poison of our own and as the bitter air
Bit down I held my breath and thought of
All the others on their backs how do you
Organize resistance against something that's
Not even there (but still killing you)? Dirt
Covered fists screaming indignantly
Midigate to out turned palms
Pleading admittedly raping people
Of their hope and the sky of
All it's stars they're dying at your feet
But 'who cares who they are'
(right?) There's no place like
Home "It's like
Filling an empty glass from an empty
Bottle" and it's stricken by
Rigor mortis with
Your hand on the throttle grasping
At a chance through a wall of austerity and a
Fence of police enforced by
Democratic vulgarity two
Percent controlling the power controlling
Yo, controlling me, controling
The borders of democracy so, it's you
And it's me and we're up against a fence
Control or be controlled by only two percent
So, it's you, and it's me and we're up
Against a fence, control or be controlled
Because only we can set us free
Into the blank sky stars cloaked by smog
The poison of our own and as the bitter air
Bit down I held my breath and thought of
All the others on their backs how do you
Organize resistance against something that's
Not even there (but still killing you)? Dirt
Covered fists screaming indignantly
Midigate to out turned palms
Pleading admittedly raping people
Of their hope and the sky of
All it's stars they're dying at your feet
But 'who cares who they are'
(right?) There's no place like
Home "It's like
Filling an empty glass from an empty
Bottle" and it's stricken by
Rigor mortis with
Your hand on the throttle grasping
At a chance through a wall of austerity and a
Fence of police enforced by
Democratic vulgarity two
Percent controlling the power controlling
Yo, controlling me, controling
The borders of democracy so, it's you
And it's me and we're up against a fence
Control or be controlled by only two percent
So, it's you, and it's me and we're up
Against a fence, control or be controlled
Because only we can set us free
