lyrics

Embracing the culture of Mao and unacknowledging the past
Thinking of days which are gone, I know you want them back, but they're your enemy
Releasing the wolves, you know I won't conform. You praise the ways which it was born
Restrained and stripped of youth, you lie in bed pondering of work and the days ahead

Thinking that you want to be free from your hypocrisy

Climb the ladder and they'll hold you back. Sharing the cancer that won't retract
Blinding the people with acceptance of its state and aligning it with progress
Hating the wolves for a good reason, embracing the lion who was Satan
Burn the land, and burn the coal, and burn the evergreens

Thinking that you want to be free from your hypocrisy

Some aren't sleeping and some are really going to sleep
With the surface slanted, only some land on their feet
And I look you in the eye knowing how some of you won't make it through
