We've turned a myth into a right of passage/
a story into a way of living/
passing off our trespasses/
as a way of getting into the "promised land"/
it doesn't work that way down here.

If He's here/then where am I?/
why can't he help you all realize/
that all you breed is hate?

It doesn't work that way down here/
you can't chastise one group to praise another/
we've been infected/
they've poisoned our minds/
open your eyes!

Look at what we've done!

We're farther from the sky than we believe/
rooted to the ground by insecurities/
so don't tell me/it's what you believe/you're so full of it.

Look at what we've done!
(Yeah!)

We're farther from the sky than we believe/
rooted to the ground by insecurities/
(so let's hate them! let's end them!)
we've grown closer to the ground/
it's where we'll reap/all that we've sown.
(so let's hate them! let's end them!)

We've grown close to the ground/These roots will drag us down!

Look at what we've done!

Grounded

For as long as I remember/the cold look in your eyes/
an indifference to my existence/explain yourself/
you were never there/explain yourself/why you're not here?

So this is the end/you won't drag me down/
down to the ground/where you belong/
I'm over it/I'm through/you never saw me/
I have been standing here all along.

Running through the reasons in my head/
you'll never be/anything to anyone at all/
you gave it up/was I worth nothing to you?
you let me down/let me down again...

In and out/you slither you crawl/
down to the ground/where you belong/
six years later/and still not a slither of your tongue/
six years later/and we still haven't had that "talk".

Explain to me/your insolence/your greed/
"only God" can judge you/well you're dead to me!
your selfish insides/are not of my own/
you don't pollute these veins.

Your selfish insides/are not of my own.

The Serpent

I've given up on this/
you swear you don't see it but I'll make you feel it/
I gave my all for it/
but you never saw it/
it was a waste of my time (waste of my time).

Don't make me feel/
don't make me feel/
like I'm losing my mind (losing my mind).

Well I've said and I'll say it again/ I'm at no loss for apathy/
and I've said and I'll say it again/ I'm at no loss for words.

I've been down this road/ time and time again/
and nothing's changed/ it's way too late/
there's nothing left to say/ nothing's changed/
its far too late.

I think I've lost touch/ with everyone and everything/
I promise you this won't be the end of me.

Sometimes I feel/ sometimes I feel like I'm losing my mind (losing my mind)/
you make me feel/you make me feel like I'm losing my mind (losing my mind).

we're going nowhere fast/ begin to dig your grave.

Nowhere Fast

I can feel them inside/snaking through my mind/tearing up my insides/
I can feel them inside/behind my eyes/they're selling me new lies.

(They're inside) they're inside/we could fight but we're better off/
(listen to them!)/they're pushing lies!

How do you run?/run away from all the filth inside your head?/
how do you thrive/when your insides are all but dead?

I'm hearing voices/voices inside my head/
they've made their way through my veins/
I'm on the edge/I will not let them in/
I will force them out/out.
these filthy voices/voices inside my head/
they're trying their best/to push me off the ledge.

I will not lay/I will not lay down.

So here's the question/for the inquiring minds of our time/
how do we fight such filth that runs so deep/deep into our insides?
(deep) it runs so (deep) and while we sleep/
they're tearing at our insides/eating us all alive.

They're inside/we could fight but were better off/
(listen to them!)
they're inside/us all/and were fucked.

Lay down/lay down/
lay down/I won't/ lay down.

I can feel them inside/snaking through my mind/
tearing up my insides/they're inside (they live!)

They Live

There's no light/there's no home/
nowhere left to go/after you're dead and gone/
(no home).

Sleep is few and far between/when you realize/life is slowly depleting/
and I'm so sorry I don't believe/I'm so sorry I don't believe.
I can't justify/I won't lie/and its gets easier as time goes by/
I can't justify/I won't lie/to myself.

(There's no home)/we're let down and broken/
(There's no home)/no light at the end of the tunnel/
so where is your God now?

Sleep is few and far between/when you're fighting with your own sanity/
and I'm not sorry/I don't believe/I'm not sorry/I don't believe/
I can't justify/I won't lie/it won't get better as time goes by/
I can't justify/I won't lie/to myself.

There's no light/there's no home/
nowhere left to go/after you're dead and gone/
(no home).

You lied to me/took my choice from me/
force fed me/dreams of eternity.
