Lyrics
These are your fallen dreams.
We don't seek accolades; we relish in tomorrow's uncertainties.
You've tried to mold us to take your place (shocked and awed at our dissarray),
taken back by your confusion as to why you thought we'd stay.
You greet the future with the mistakes of your past,
dettering us with orders, we'll refuse your proposterous house of glass.
A superficial generation feeding fuel to their morales set aflame.

Burning them to ash as the scapegoats of their blame.
Fucking burn them to the ground, destroying any hope for change.

We fight to preserve what little is left. But these chains still drag with every step.

Our refusal to comply has not granted us our freedom,
these chains still drag with every step.
We fight so that our struggle will not have been in vain,
we fight to preserve what little is left.
With curiousity portrayed as wrongful ignorance,
how will we proceed?
When measured against the failures of the masses,
why willingly bleed?
This everlasting reign of trepidation demotes our very being.

Our persistance will not waver, but to have fought and lost is the best consolation that awaits our reprieve.
With curiousity portrayed as wrongful ignorance, how will we proceed?

We fear that the fruition of our efforts will not be that of your choosing,
and we mourn that for this you'll hold us in contempt.
But It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

These are your fallen dreams,
we don't seek accolades,
we relish in tomorrow's uncertainties.
You've tried to mold us to take your place,
shocked and awed at our disarray,
taken aback by your confusion as to why you thought we'd stay.
But these chains still drag with every step we take.

We fear that the fruition of our efforts will not be that of your choosing,
and we mourn that for this you'll hold us in contempt.
But It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

We fight to preserve what little is left. But these chains still drag with every step.
