Lyrics
The Trap
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm sick of it, I'm sick of it, these voices that I've read
Cries of hope and cries of peace, but behind the doors is only greed
The savior of this fallen world didn't die for your politics
I'm only human, forgive my rambling but your speeches make me sick
Please hear the point that I'd like to make
The fear of man is our first mistake
There is a hope, there is a hope
And it's not in Washington
Once we realize this, I say we win
Shut your mouth please shut your mouth
Chaos is your game
Feed on drama for more ratings
Capitalize on pain
If we become what we consume
Then this all makes sense
We judge our brother and then they follow
What a dirty lens
Please hear the point that I'd like to make
The fear of man is our first mistake
There is a hope, there is a hope
And it's not in Washington
Once we realize this, I say we win
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
Hear what I say
(Hey, Hey!)
You never listen
You never listen
You never listen anyway
(Hey, Hey!)
Please hear the point that I'd like to make
The fear of man is our first mistake
There is a hope, there is a hope
And it's not in Washington
Once we realize this, I say we win
