Lyrics
Fall Of The Old Guard
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.
It's the way they get into your mind
It infiltrates and it makes you blind
And it's those hypnotic voices
That pull us down into the sand
And it's part of your ambition
That has you follow their commands
I've felt the pressure
Within my soul
Do what it takes
To take control
Don't lose yourself
Among their slaves
And they want to make you their own
And they need to own you to make you
It's too late for them and they know
And now they're trying, trying to break you
They're reaching up
Gasping for air
A drowning breed
Cries it's not fair
Just know inside
You have all you need
To make your own way
Without their greed
Saw your face and they promised more
They'll change your fate
Don't let them in
They couldn't wait to move in close
They need to feed on what you have most
And they tell you there's no choices
That they hold your fate in their hands
But they're dying, all the voices
Break away and make your stand
I been down that road before
I don't hear them anymore
I've carved my own path
And now I'm so much more
And they want to make you their own
And they need to own you to make you
It's too late for them and they know
And now they're trying, trying to break you
