Drags You Home (Live Rough Cut)
Lyrics
You hide behind authority
Manipulate popularity
But I see through your deception
And you know it
That's why you stifle me
Cause you're afraid
That they might see
Beyond the facade you put forward
But it's only a matter of time
Before you're held to account for your crimes
And I may not be there to see
Karma kick you in the ass for me
It's for all the lies you hide so well
And the ugly truth that I can't tell
For the memories that you stole today
In this wretched little game you play
Maybe one day you'll redeem yourself
But I, for one, won't hold my breath
In the meantime, I hope guilt, it eats you whole
Or that the hell you're from drags you home
Or that the hell you're from drags you home
They'll label you, antagonize
Feed half-truths
To ignorant eyes
And fabricate, to justify their actions
Nothing's sacred, nothing's pure
The innocent must endure
The wrath of their whims
With no recourse
But it's only a matter of time
Before their held to account for their crimes
And I may not be there to see
Karma kick you in the ass for me
It's for all the lies you hide so well
And the ugly truth that I can't tell
For the memories that you stole today
In this wretched little game you play
Maybe one day you'll redeem yourself
But I, for one, won't hold my breath
In the meantime, I hope guilt, it eats you whole
Or that the hell you're from drags you home
Or that the hell you're from drags you home
Or that the hell you're from drags you home...
