an image of humanity twisted and broken down
my pity quickly turns to hatred
as i watch them fall to their knees
controlled by a crutch
you're broken - you're broken down
i've seen you rise - i've seen you fall
won't show remorse - it was your call
but still i can't deny, i can't deny it hurts
i remember how much it meant
i remember just what you said
there's no excuse for your abuse
there's no rhyme for the line you feed us
about growing up, can't hide this pride inside
as i watch them slowly die
your skin is tainted by your promises broken
how can you live with yourself
how can they live with themselves
how can you live with yourself
how can they live with themselves
your theories of moderation
a plan destined to fail
now hateful words and insulting stares
are used to justify their corruption
