Unquestioned Answers

Thrice

Your traps are all baited

your scales are all weighted

but not resisting you would surely drive me insane

so im caught and convicted,

my rights are restricted

the imbecile dynasty continues to reign



your apathy of thought

has lead you to believe

that things are what they're not

my friend you've been decieved

the easiest route rarely leads to the truth

i see the self approval glaze your eyes

you know you're right

no need to worry why

a thousand stones remain unturned

in the wake of your unquestioned answers

and truth covered lies



traditions some bear

idly without out a care

but are determined that they stand unchanged

and those who choose to rebel

just to raise up some hell

tell me what are you hoping to gain



i cant reason with you

i speak words you can't hear

social conditioning left you with deafened ears

so i take your face in hand

see that look in your eyes

that rigormortis stare,

that look that i despise

and so i turn from you

i walk these streets alone

alone i search for truth

ideal that you've disowned

and wait with fingers crossed

and pray you'll someday find

a way to see things though your own eyes
