The Jaded Empire

from The Core And The Shell by AND THEN THEY RUN

lyrics

minds astray
only bodies passing by
unoccupied
i've witnessed this play for years
and i've grown so weary
it seems like the setup for our last days
indulged in vanity they proclaim this as progess
but we are down infinite to 0
communication fails
spoon-fed paradigms erase independence
what happened to the untamed minds and hearts?
once overwhelmed by creativity
we now gaze at the products of our culture
kneeling before them
satisfied with copying what is shown and told
a kingdom for the deaf, blind and numb
i've grown so weary
relieve me
i want out (we want out)
let's escape
from this fucked up world
'cause it's a dead end
we are done here
it's over
