Bent

Same old lies, sequester the nonbelievers
 Don't forgive the ones
 Who trespass against us
 Smiling deceivers, painted faces
 By the wishing well
 You don't even trust yourself
 Why do we face the same thing
 If change is a constant?
 Have we not learned
 From the past, from the past?
 The stillborn star we'll never know
 The parent's love that won't let go
 The bullied teen that's ready to shoot
 A tear and a 21 gun salute
 Welcome to the age of misinformation
 Seeking control, your reflection's a stranger
 Why do we face the same thing
 If change is a constant?
 Have we not learned from the past?
 As we all fall down, the jester still sings to me
 As we all fall down
 The silver lining screams to me
 Descending madness violently
 The poisoning of tribes, to the lifeline of Flint
 Now the black snake
 It crawls deep within sacred grounds
 We will never consent
 The night watch man just buying his time
 An outcast, a resident
 A transient, the punishment
 One dollar bill, no table for two
 So many questions no one ever asked
 As we all fall down, the jester still sings to me
 As we all fall down
 The silver lining screams to me
 Descending madness violently
 As we all fall down
 As we all fall down
 The silver lining screams to me
 Descending madness violently
