Architects of Discontent

I saw a scar tear open high up in the sky
Then watched it rain down fallacies into my eyes
Just another normal day here in the land of make-believe
Then I heard voices sing perversions of the truth
Raising the praises for corruption of the youth
Disjointed logic has been ushered in to replace normalcy

As the floodwater rises higher and higher cracks in the levee grow
Climb as high as you like but there's no place left to go

The architects of discontent have got you in their snare
It's not the first time and it won't be the last time
Claim ignorance as your defense it won't get you anywhere
So stand for something or you'll be left with nothing

So here we are at the beginning of the end
Unable to distinguish a foe from a friend
Bombarded with the truth wrapped lies here in the new reality
The fog of war is growing farther everyday
So much that we can't see obstructions in our way
Fragmented thinking brings us to the only option we can see

As the floodwater rises higher and higher cracks in the levee grow
Climb as high as you like but there's no place left to go

The architects of discontent have got you in their snare
It's not the first time and it won't be the last time
Claim ignorance as your defense it won't get you anywhere
So stand for something or you'll be left with nothing

This life's worth fighting for but they're not worth dying for
The hope and change it was a lie another wedge meant to divide us
So they will start again they'll form another plan
Another new deception telling us to turn on one another
Life is not a game they play us
Like we're toys but they can't shame us into being subservient fools
We'll break their rules

The architects of discontent have got you in their snare
It's not the first time and it won't be the last time
Claim ignorance as your defense it won't get you anywhere
So stand for something or you'll be left with nothing
