Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lifecycles and planned obsolescence
A perfect trap disguised as assistance
It takes the pain away
It takes the pain away
[Verse 2]
Control the sentience of the masses
Relief displaced with silent disaster
But I won't fade away
No, I won't fade away
[Verse 3]
I defy this hopelessness
I defy your callousness
I defy, irreverent
I will rise
I see through your disguise and all your lies
I defy
[Verse 4]
Defy
I defy
[Verse 5]
A numbing cure for the common existence
To trade security for subsistence
It takes the pain away
It takes the pain away
[Verse 6]
Victimize, enable, beguile
A body count without a reprisal
But I won't fade away
No, I won't fade away
[Verse 7]
I defy this hopelessness
I defy your callousness
I defy, irreverent
I will rise
I see through your disguise and all your lies
I defy
[Verse 8]
Sometimes the pain of life's too much to mitigate
But I refuse to march into an early grave
I refuse to march into an early grave
[Verse 9]
I defy this hopelessness
I defy your callousness
I defy, irreverent
I will rise
I see through your disguise and all of  your lies
I defy
[Verse 10]
Defy
Defy
Defy
I defy
