Drowning In A Burning World

And nobody tries for those left behind

For they're all just weak and pacified

Look at us forgotten

Trained to bide our time

Look at us, we're rotten

Festering inside (Festering inside)

Poverty like an old friend

Carrot stays dangling

Return to beginning as end

Came for nothing

Screaming in the loudest room

Mother Earth, a barren womb

Your safe place becomes a tomb

We're all pigs before the pearls

Drowning in a burning world

Came for nothing

You, marionette

Dance for me for a dime

You're never gonna get

Paid for all this crime

You, marionette

Dance for me for a dime

You're never gonna get

Paid for all this crime

Poverty like an old friend

Carrot stays dangling

Return to beginning as end

Came for nothing

Screaming in the loudest room

Mother Earth, a barren womb

Your safe place becomes a tomb

We're all pigs before the pearls

Drowning in a burning world

Came for nothing

And nobody tries

No, nobody tries

For those left behind

For they're all just weak and pacified

Open me up, open me up

Hope is what you won't find

Open me up, open me up

Hope is what you won't find

Once underground we'll be purified

Once underground we'll be purified

We're all pigs before the pearls

Drowning in a burning world now
