Gods and Governors

Screams in silence
Cheer for misery
Celebrate these lies
And tell yourself you’re free

March for your end
Parade your suffering
Worn around your neck
We’re all slowly dying

Break the strings
These fragile savage things
Relief for belief
They only promise grief

(Use me)
In these endless wars
(Take me)
Lie to me for hours
(Break away)
From the evil that we pray
From gods and governors

Break the strings
The tyranny of kings
The theft and the death
They’re here only for themselves
