Turning away
With pride overcoming
Aspirations aloft
With a greed overwhelming
I turn my eyes
From a scene so disgusting
That a handful of talent
throws its heart away
Are they blind to the things that they've become
Exploiting images of pain
Someday Karma will reveal their bitter lies
Till then we can only pray
I pray for a righteous becoming
I pray for the truth overwhelming
I'm on my way
A way to a higher perspective
On my way
To a place I can no longer live
I take it on myself
To understand the atrocity
So I can be myself
Around people who are fake to me
Why do I feel so alone
The media tells us who we all should be
Why do they all seem like a clone
They could be anything they wanted to be
Drowning, I'm sinking
Wasteful world of art
We're going in circles
It's all falling apart
Set me free
From all of this greed
Rescue me
It's just a game
Leave me be
I won't let you in
Can't you see
Your heart leads the way
Think for yourself
Don't let them lead you
Know the truth
Don't let them blind you
I'm wasting my energy
You people will never see
This burden it weighs on me
I can't let it go
Behind the lies I see the light
Behind the mask I see it all
This overwhelming sense of emptiness
This undying passion will not fall
Set me free from all I see
I walk to my own song
Set me free from this greed
I walk to my own song
I'm fading out to nowhere
Left on my own
Running away
From the lies you are telling
Good intentions are lost
And your soul you are selling
It burns my eyes
It's all overbearing
That a world of potential
Throws its heart away
Take it away
Take it away
