The Disconnect

All of our lives we’ve been told what to believe
“Nothing is perfect”, so what’s the point of purpose?
The line that separates the weak from us who truly care
Is one I don’t intend to cross

The heart of man beats but only in greedy hands,
And it seems that most are still content.
Where most are comfortable accepting insignificance,
We strive to find the effort within.

If you open up your eyes
And open up your mind
You we be exposed
To a world, as cold as those who are left to populate it

Two decades spent swallowing lie after lie
Has sparked a fire in my heart
And the time has come to spread the flame
We can’t continue wasting time
Day after day trying to find a new means of escape
We can’t continue wasting time
We do this day after day

We do this day after day
We do this day after fucking day
And I can’t face the disconnect
I’ll shed the dead weight and rise
And I can’t face the disconnect
I’ll shed the dead weight and rise

I never thought,
That I would need to justify
A reason to continue in this life I lead.
I fucking hate the world!
I fucking hate myself!
I swore I’d never fucking feel like this.

And I hate the world
And I hate myself
I hate the world!
