lyrics

All those souls, they got the same disease,
They see nothing past their circles, No forests through their trees,
And they all walk with such a cocky certainty,
The lines they are a'changing, But the victories are defeats,

When you just can't see the point of breaking bread,
With the kind of lonely heart that fills your head,
With ways to play the game and break your promises,
As long as you're on top and the competition's dead,

If I could count the times I felt ashamed to be,
Associated with the sewage running through this scene,
Then I'd probably be at one million seven hundred and three,
The lines they are a'changing, But the victories are defeats,

Is it really that tough to find some decency,
Or add a little passion to your personality,
Or find some space to fit in empathy,
Walk on, walk on
