[Thrice - Unquestioned Answers lyrics]
Your traps are all baited
Your scales are all weighted
But not resisting you would
Surely drive me insane
So I'm caught and convicted
My rights are restricted
The imbecile dynasty continues to reign
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not
My friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
Traditions some bear, idly without a care
But determined that they stand unchanged
And those who choose to rebel just
To raise up some hell
Tell me, What were you hoping to gain?
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not
My friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
I can't reason with you
I speak words you can't hear
Social conditioning left you
With deafened ears
So I take your face in hand
See that look in your eyes
That rigor mortis stare
That look that I despise
And so I turn from you
I walk these streets alone
Alone I search for truth
Ideal that you've disowned
And wait with fingers crossed and
Hope you'll someday find
A way to see things though your own eyes
Your scales are all weighted
But not resisting you would
Surely drive me insane
So I'm caught and convicted
My rights are restricted
The imbecile dynasty continues to reign
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not
My friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
Traditions some bear, idly without a care
But determined that they stand unchanged
And those who choose to rebel just
To raise up some hell
Tell me, What were you hoping to gain?
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not
My friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
I can't reason with you
I speak words you can't hear
Social conditioning left you
With deafened ears
So I take your face in hand
See that look in your eyes
That rigor mortis stare
That look that I despise
And so I turn from you
I walk these streets alone
Alone I search for truth
Ideal that you've disowned
And wait with fingers crossed and
Hope you'll someday find
A way to see things though your own eyes
