Perpetrator 가사

Fire engulfs us Violence culls us Every empire falls and now our time has come As I observe this madness from the confines of isolation I begin to ask myself Is there purpose in defiance? I watch the masses elevate a masochistic patriarch of hate Who's only aim is to laugh in the face of fate In our misguidedness We're ready to fucking rip this world apart Humanity splits and throws the blame from side to side What have we done? Isn't it amazing how we're susceptible to triviality? Like we're trapped in a dream and the horrors of the world do not exist Intolerant to empathy We shy away from doing the right thing Holding hope in our hearts that everything will be okay Shall we close our eyes and wish it all away? Instead of taking chances to wake up Why do we stay? We believe the lies and deceit based on the hate in our own hearts I can't believe we got this far Look at us We're at the pinnacle Will we be revered as gods? When will you realise that you're the perpetrator Fire engulfs us Violence culls us Every empire falls and now our time has come They poison us with what we fear but do not understand Weak for words colliding with our insecurities They take advantage so we're easier to segregate In the name of divide and conquer And when the end has come We'll rise up from the ashes Embracing the heat from the sun Asking ourselves how did this come to pass? We believe the lies and deceit based on the hate in our own hearts I can't believe we got this far Look at us We're at the pinnacle Will we be revered as gods? When will you realise that you're the perpetrator Fire engulfs us Violence culls us Every empire falls and now our time has come
