Lyrics
A Myth Retired
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.
That s just how
They want it to be
That s just how
They ve worked it out
A system based on egotism
Moral values
That spell greed
When the anxiety attacks
Come closer in between
Step out of your denial
Forget your self esteem
Open your eyes
Open those baby blues
Living in hell
Beats not living at all
They got you
Right where they want you
They didn t even have
To dig the hole
It all hits me in the eyes
A human wreckage
Speaking in tongues
I hate it here
But where will you run?
Where will you hide?
As long as you don't reflect
You're happy where you are
If you would start
To questions it
You wouldn't even
Know where to start
Here comes the handshake
The handshake and the smile
The bigotry, the bigotry
The hunt for
The sacred game
It's all face value
All symbols of stature
Underneath the surface
Wounds that never heal
