lyrics

Pass the torch, you know you won't take it to the ground.
We carry on these days of note that are way too long to count.
But you'd sacrifice everything to retain.
You've sold it all. You've given out and around (round and round) we go.
The point to prove is here and now, to sway our minds from doubt.
Yet you're moving round and round too many times to count.
And you'd compromise anything to remain.

Dense fog of aggregation. Sounds cry for clarity.
Condole in deaths connection, your torch has lost its fire.
You’ve taught the final lecture found in your walk of life.
Pray now for zeal and vigor.
I am the acolyte.

Your riches are stolen, sticky fingered as a thief; and it doesn't resonate with me.
Use your mouth as a weapon to indoctrinate beliefs. Progressively cheating without empathy.

You're losing control. You're trading it all. You're going to war.
Does anyone notice? You're staging it all.
Have you swallowed your tongue? Recreating transgressions. I feel the grudge persuading me.

Our virtue is threatened through red tape conformity. Your mockery bias shows no dignity.
It's humiliation, it's downright calamity. It's embarrassing for you as your muttering.

Does anyone notice? I can hear you degrading me. I do.
Does anyone notice? I can feel you negating me. I do.
You're taking. You're hating. You're faking. You're fake.
Never been wrong, nothing at all.
Nobody knows you started it all.
Pull the plug to disconnect.

You tempt the rules of Gods. You damn the light.
You beg for fantasy to suppress real life.
You burn the open flame and we're treading ice.
You stress the breaking point, and we pay the price.
And you've failed to lull divide while you feed us lies.
And you've gone so far beyond control, we're left to die.
A sacrifice of all our lives. I am the acolyte.
