At the mercy of the monolith With our voices rendered meaningless Slowly twist the knife Till you choose a side In the shadow of our silence Dormant and still Dragging us into the violence Against our will Slowly twist the knife Choose your side It's pulling you under It's breaking you down They're pushing you further Internalized When you think you can't escape, it's pulling you under Pulling you under It's breaking you down Buried inside They're pushing you further This state of mind All the pain you can't erase, internalized Held down, pushed apart by walls of stone Fighting to put a liar on a throne They watch as we decay In anguish or apathy So twist the knife I won't choose a side Choice is illusion when the solution Only serves to bleed us dry And it's pulling you under It's breaking you down They're pushing you further Internalized When you think you can't escape, it's pulling you under Pulling you under It's breaking you down Buried inside They're pushing you further This state of mind All the pain you can't erase, internalized We sold our soul to the monolith And now we're left with nothing This cycle, never ending We sold our soul to the monolith All the hurt that you hide inside caves in Internalized Internalized As we die inside All the pain you can't erase, internalized
