Lyrics:

Straddling the corners
are the faces who've seen better,
shrouded in the secret peace
of a bitter silent honor.
the corroded masks we wear
hiding true demeanors,
grasping at the pieces
to be fitted into place...

While shackled in debt
and wasting our time,
force fed acceptance from enterslaved minds,
being judged on lack of luxury
by those who want my future burnt in effigy.

Been told once and been told twice
but third times the crime -
build the pyres and set the fires,
piss and moan, bitch and drone --
past action dissolves integrity,
delusions become memory
and this history of quiet poverty
is rewritten time and time again...
