lyrics

Dear Reality
In security
Were you justified?
Intercepting lies

I saw something I can’t unsee
And now the burden falls on me
The truth is right there on the page
As everyone just looks away

It’s all a lie, it’s all a con
And they believe in what they want
It’s overload, I can’t go on
The threat is real, they have to know the truth

So let that whistle blow
Please don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just a passenger
So what comes tomorrow?

As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality

Tell me what this place meant
Dirty, leaky basement
Storm on the horizon
Can’t stay on this island

The mob has gathered on the lawn
With torches lit and weapons drawn
They left you buried in a cage
They killed the light, and burned the page

Society, why can’t they see
The forest for the single trees
Paranoia, dystopia
This is real, they had to know the truth

So let that whistle blow
Do with me what you will, come in for the kill
So what comes tomorrow?

As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality

Maybe someday this all will end
Maybe they’ll be something to defend

As the world becomes a stage, we can only try to change
The course of history
Don’t give up, sing your song, we can fight to right this wrong
My Reality
