The Flood

	Will you ever look past your self-sufficient illusions?
	The structure's true foundations rest within you
	The price we pay for sheer indifference
	Surrendered self-discount spare parts
	You give up your rights for your limitations
	And abandon all hope
	One step further down the line
	As the flood begins to rise
	You're on your knees, faking ambition
	Now close your eyes and bleed
	I know there are things from the past
	That should never be brought back
	The ghosts of stale ideals and burning bridges
	In simplified, inane depictions of a different world
	A lie to serve the fold and the forces in them
	As you give up your rights for your limitations
	And lay down your arms
	One step further down the line
	As the flood begins to rise
	You're on your knees, faking ambitions
	Now close your eyes....
	In the darkest corner of my mind,
	I see a boy with a crooked smile
	With a crown made of tinsel and glass beads
	On a wire
	Singing a song out of time
	Now, if you believe, I'll bleed for you...
	And if I bleed, so could you
	Close your eyes and pretend it’ll go away
	But you know that you’ve got nothing to lose

	Will you ever look past your selfsufficient illusions?
	The structure' s true foundations rest within you
	The price we pay for sheer indifference
	Surrendered selfdiscount spare parts
	You give up your rights for your limitations
	And abandon all hope
	One step further down the line
	As the flood begins to rise
	You' re on your knees, faking ambition
	Now close your eyes and bleed
	I know there are things from the past
	That should never be brought back
	The ghosts of stale ideals and burning bridges
	In simplified, inane depictions of a different world
	A lie to serve the fold and the forces in them
	As you give up your rights for your limitations
	And lay down your arms
	One step further down the line
	As the flood begins to rise
	You' re on your knees, faking ambitions
	Now close your eyes....
	In the darkest corner of my mind,
	I see a boy with a crooked smile
	With a crown made of tinsel and glass beads
	On a wire
	Singing a song out of time
	Now, if you believe, I' ll bleed for you...
	And if I bleed, so could you
	Close your eyes and pretend it' ll go away
	But you know that you' ve got nothing to lose
