There's a moth
(So you say you)
From far away
(Wanted me to stay)
It bares news upon it's
Dew-ridden wings
(Was gonna anyway)
Forming tears beneath its eyespots
It sees your pain
Happy tears beneath still eyespots
It saw the change
(It's all the same old shit)
(All the same old-)
Yes I know this is real life
You've made a point to remind me
Guess I hoped you'd lend a hand in
Wrecking that cycle we all see
Thankfully, I smell change in the wind
Your stale scent finally grows thin
Must be sore, still blowing fuses
Bending over backwards, chasing cheap excuses
You're gonna trip on your power
If you keep pulling it so taut
And all these things I find sour
Are complaints you must have once thought
No, I won't break, but I will start
Promise I'll stay smart
I know where your loyalty lies, but what about your guilt?
If you're sleeping well at night, what brand's your melatonin pills?
There are consequences
For everybody's actions
You will get what's coming to you
(Last sand's nearly fell through)
I believe in redemption, new beginnings
But they start with your move, and you're still sitting
I hate this system we're perpetuating
Taking our bullies and then just waiting
Confrontation should not be so avoided
Stop feeding children fear of having voices
I know where your loyalty lies, but what about your guilt?
If you're sleeping well at night, what brand's your melatonin pills?
I refuse to give in, and feign it's to be the better man
Exhausted, and wearing thin, but I'm not letting you win
(Not letting you win
Not letting you)
Tyrant propaganda spread wide
The real bigger person stands and fights
I'll stay smart about it
No vows when your ears are around
Things will change
I'll die on this hill
But first, you will
