lyrics

I’m searching for my own place somewhere deep beneath the skin
influenced not by sloth or greed and funded not by sin
it’s a place devoid of tax and toll, rendered free of faith in gods
your mind is placed first in line but your heart is all you got
here I sit in patience waiting ever-long
I’m stuck between two sides, each of which is wrong

your mother and your father, your friends you hold so dear
as you’ve grown your eyes have shown the truth to be less clear
it’s so easy to follow blindly but so hard to see straight
beneath the twisting push and pull, a variety of strain
here I sit in patience waiting ever-long
I’m stuck between two sides, each of which is wrong

I know there must be others whose cheeks redden in disgrace
to see their lives turned into lies and all sacredness replaced
by a promise of change that rearranged everything that we can see
the pieces have moved to different spots but its still a puzzle to me
there i sat in patience waiting ever-long
I was stuck between two sides, each of which was wrong
now I search for others discontent with this scam
the side I take is now my own and I let the rest be damned
