Another day for us to hear you speak.
Are you oblivious that you look weak?
You only care when it benefits you.
Fades all your colors that you claim are true.
It's always the same, always the same.
First one to speak, but the last one to listen.
Can you close your mouth and absorb what you're missing?
For one second can you understand it's not just you
who's under the gun, no you're not the only one.
And when will you realize
This selfish way of life will capsize
All the shit that you think you believe in,
And you'll die on this hill you chose to dig your feet in.
Now you're upset that you've been called out.
Your voice is shrinking and it's not so loud now.
Distort and distract with illusions of sympathy.
Your final silence is all you should give to me.
How are we breathing?
Our hearts still beating?
All this time we've only cared for ourselves.
I don't know why you insist on standing so high
On a soapbox that's so fragile in your own mind
And it's built for all the wrong fucking reasons
Spotlighting yourself the only thing you expertise in.
So go on, and take your pat on the back
And I hope that it provides the attention you lack.
Bask in the glory of a synthetic worry
While the severity of this remains to be blurry.

Ce disque me rappelle les Rage against the machine, fatalement. Mais la musique me plaît davantage, car plus hardcore. Il y a du riff pour des mois. gregory duveau
