lyrics

Sit and try to keep the time
A metronome with two eyes
Gazes back at you, we sigh
Collective voices spewing lies
Filled with anger, synthesized
Hostile laughter, hopeless cries
Sit and try to keep the time

Young dumb
Blind deaf
Is anyone
listening
Refracting off our frozen sides
All reaction glistening
Young and dumb and deaf
Is anybody listening?
Pheonix ashes empty eyes
Hostile laughter, hopeless cries
Filled with anger synthesized
Have you thought to check the time

Sit and try to keep the time

But i just keep on singing
Because it makes me feel new
It brings me some comfort
Because it brings me to you

We arent stuck in some stasis
We dont need to renew
Reject any comfort
Claim it's your truth

Keep those eyes from spotting you

Insist it is your inner truth

Splintered off from mask and hoofs

Pheonix cultures turned to glue

Promise is not change

You are stuck in chains

You are stuck in chains


Sit and try to keep the time
A metronome with two eyes
Collective voices spewing lies
Sit and try to keep the time

Promise is not change

You are stuck in chains.
