[Verse 1]
If a thought were a contract, I'd try to buy out of it
I don't know why I signed at the bottom
I'm bound to the words that I didn't even speak yet
As eyes have their own language
Why submit to a rhyme when it doesn't reason?
What you thought was deep is but beneath depth
A keepsake that hates thanks well rehearsed
All that's left is memories when we cross Jordan
We get older and feel the regrets
Sting like our conscience sleeps on a bed of nails
It must be lovely to know innocence again
Because this weariness will not subside
No matter what's accrued, when it's due
It'll be taken from you, so give while you still can
Every touch is a reminder of joy present
In the world, a heartfelt embrace between real friends
[Verse 2]
In a land barren of love, forsaken by compa**ion
Vilified are those who are taking a stand
Against sociopaths who market the world's ills
As the cure for the very thing that teaches how to heal
If distrust is taught, we give up distraught
It's on us to sow hope, we can't lust for rewards
Cause the bounty on our heads was placed by the ones
Who can't afford to see us happy, so they pay to see us dead...
