Free The Fallen - Century lyrics

Constantly I'm s**ed into this vortex of conformity. Over and over and time and again, There's never progress, only regrets. You try to hold me down, You're chains are broken from me This was you're final chance, to embrace my presence (x3) Our bridges are burned There's no way out now Step up, And show the world what you have to offer, Lead them to a path to nowhere. Tell them your story and spread your lies, You look so comfy, behind that mask. I should've known. I should've known that this would lead to this. I should've known. I should've known that this would be worthless. I'm back where I started left stranded, with no direction. I look to you, but you hand me no compensation. No longer will I be given false directions, No longer will I live under your restrictions. This song sort of ties in to 'You Can't Teach Heart'. However, this is a story of falling into that path of conformity that everyone seems to do these days. It's terrible to see friends or family fall into something bad, or have an opinion on something you know they feel differently about. This song is about overcoming that. Overcoming the people that have brought you down to their level, who have forced you into their opinions on things.
