Lyrics Exploit - City State

Exploit

Black clouds conceal the deception
Lacing the words of the inner state
We’re turned around as our voices cry out for help
And find rest in the ones that tear us down
Look away
Find safety in the ones that led us astray
The evidence has never been more clear
But we’re blind to it, blind to it
We remain the same, stuck in our ways
Blind to the force that will make us change when it’s too late
We fell short, took the easy way out
And vowed to forget what «never happened»
Find truth in the thoughts we tucked away
Before that is gone too
Trust doesn’t belong with those that silence the truth
We put our faith in hands of chaos bred
Through desperation for something new
But we’re alone in the end
Victims to the safety that was promised
Exploited by the ones who claim to serve our needs
Fear is fabricated to fuel the disease
Ignorance is blinding
We’re building walls to cover up the lies we believe in
Find truth in the thoughts we tucked away
Before that is gone too
Trust doesn’t belong with those that silence the truth
We put our faith in hands of chaos bred
Through desperation for something new
But we’re alone in the end
Victims to the safety that was promised
Ignorance is blinding
We’re building walls to cover the lies we believe in
But we’re alone in the end
Fear is at the gates
But it’s our own creation
A trap meant to counter progress
