A Myth Retired

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
