You fear the dark, but you're afraid to see Don't want to hear, burn the witch Spider circling the net Reeling in the capital threat Scare me off, I don't dare to get sick Stay in bed and I'm not worth shit We will fight your ways You should fear the people They say time is money But you cant buy time They say time can heal But you cant fix the past Don't want to bleed but you spit on my stitch You don't plead for clipping my wings You don't plead for beating the beaten You stab the heart and twist the blade Moral and ethics buried by hate A little hope cries for its fate They will die by your hand You can choose to forget but it cant come undone Your so called compassion Wont give consequence at all I don't bite, my hands are not green It's like fixing an arm by cutting it off The witch wont float, I scream from my throat Stop smiling you greedy fucker This is your witching hour They say time is money But you cant buy time They say time can heal But you cant fix the past

World 02:21
What do you want? I know what you want All the money in the world All the blank spots to be found You see you can't find what's already been found If you teach them how to live will you teach them how to die? All the flags to be burned Every border to be crossed Every spark to be seen What you call the world is what you haven't seen Where have you really been? But we don't have a price We can't be bought We know what we want We know we don't want you This is not the world I once was told about It's the world in disguise And you made the mask for it to wear We won't give in We'll be one and you'll be none All the flags to be burned Every border to be crossed Every spark to be seen What you call the world is what you haven't seen Where have you really been?

The Mockracy 01:52
They give you the answer The answer is wrong But this is the answer that you want to hear So all you know All you know is wrong But who gives a shit This is how it's done What is next A price to breathe air? They fuck the people Fuck the care There's no light but emergency flares I bought her a star But she wants the sun This is the system This is the cage Should we handle all this with rage? Will they wake if they go to sleep? Well, who knows? This is too deep Break the chains Go for their heads Let no one hold you down How can these vultures sleep at night? They can't see with their empty eyes If I cut my strings Will I fall or dance? I don't know I'll take my chance Refuse to be a puppet Refuse to be a brick Now why is this legitimate? Twist the tongue In the mouth that spits blood How does this help the people?

I won’t, I won’t back down I know what I think is right, don’t belittle me I won’t be wearing a frown Won’t weep over your attempts to insult me Shut up, shut the fuck up Because you’ve always been wrong and you know it Won’t waste my time here with you I’ll pound your mind into pieces, you fucking twit Standing up for myself, and I am stronger than you I’m not blinded by hate, so I know what to do Back off, back the fuck off I’ll show the world who I am, and who you are ‘Cause I want my space as well I have the right to be me, not who you want I can’t, I can’t see why Why do you take out the lights when you see me? ‘Cause when you take them all out You take them out for yourself, can’t you see it? Standing up for myself, and I am stronger than you I’m not blinded by hate, so I know what to do I’m standing up for myself Stronger than you! I’m standing up for myself Stronger than you!

And this one is for all of those who think they can't shine For everyone who says "I can't even die" For all of those who only hears "You are worthless" This is for them Our words of truth You're first against the wall but don't think you're last We will color these bricks with everything we hate And you will frame We got our toes on the edge Step back, we won't let 'em win Bring your head to the surface They're on thin fucking ice They wanna smash Every nail that sticks out Hide the hammers We are the nails You're first against the wall but don't think you're last We will color these bricks with everything we hate And you will frame
