Savage Messiah - Shadowbound lyrics

Trade the lives of the powerless for the sport of mortal men Blackened wisdom hails their cries for uniformed repent Greed is the drug, the addiction is power Afflicting the throng for the profit of empire Enact the rites of hypocrisy for the scourge of relevance Set in motion worlds apart all the herds of mindless men Like cattle the herd are sent to their slaughter The failure of freedom to counter the order Without reason torn apart As the faceless play their part Another face to sell the score Another mask to hide the cause Face the shadowbound Working underground Decide without a sound How our lives unravel Trade the lives of the ignorant a collateral in blood Falsify this paradigm to render all the brain dead Soulless inaction the root of the cause The fallout of judgment that sense the fall There's only worth if you believe The only value's what you see Yet things get lost behind a price Of superficial edifice Face the shadowbound Working underground Decide without a sound How our lives unravel
