lyrics

I bet that they’ll be back to haunt you
I bet that they’ll be pounding down your door
In a system that’s failed this badly
Nothing else matters anymore
Tribal colors that bleed through
Upholding hands that bleed blue

We’ve been (UNDER ATTACK)
For so long now it’s hard to know just (HOW TO REACT)
Just don’t reframe the past

those with the most give the least
Greed is your routine
It’s not about beliefs
It’s rhetorical speech
It’s such a modest fee
That keeps them of your doors
You’re mortgaging our lives
As you collect your souls

I bet that they’ll be back to haunt you
I bet that they’ll be pounding down your door
In a system that’s failed this badly
Nothing else matters anymore
Tribal colors that bleed through
Each time we tear down a statue

People are dying as you reach for more
That’s what it means to climb
To climb that ladder
So fuck you, I got mine
We protect our own
We’ll pull your life boats
As long as we’ve made it to shore

We need to start over
Starting now!
We have resources
We still have a peaceful way out
Find a boltgun
Dismantle the framework
Built on exploitation
A system can never work

(NEW PARAGON)

(STARTING TODAY)

(DIRECTION CAN CHANGE)

(WE CAN'T WAIT)

I bet that they’ll be back to haunt you
I bet that they’ll be pounding down your door
In a system that’s failed this badly
Nothing else matters anymore
Tribal colors that bleed through
Upholding hands that bleed blue
