Destitute Songtext
von Pridelands

The common man left collecting debris
His tattered heart and his worn out dreams
Oh how the blade is outcutting cheeks
Oh how we all fall down, oh how we all fall down
We had an obligation to leave this world
Better off than it was when we were born
Over and over, day after day
Mass destitution, tortured again

It′s killing me, it's killing me to see
I′ve been a part, I've been a part of this rat race
Since I was old enough to see
This transition that is my fear
I count my blessings on both hands
But I can't seem to understand
If I am in a rest stop
Why is time paid for?


My hypnotic morality check
My constant cycle checks, the constant been disbanded
So can you riddle me this?
What is a thousand eyes with a single mouth?
Cut down the lights, crash me to the ground
While you remain enslaved
So fucking riddle me that, ha
And I can take it all back, and I can take it all back
And I can take it all back, it belongs to them

It′s killing me, it′s killing me to see
I've been a part, I′ve been a part of this rat race
Since I was old enough to see
This transition that is my fear
I count my blessings on both hands
But I can't seem to understand
If I am in a rest stop
Why is time paid for?

It′s killing me, it's killing me to see
I′ve been a part, I've been a part of this rat race
Since I was old enough to see
This transition that is my fear
I count my blessings on both hands
But I can't seem to understand
If I am in a rest stop
Why is time paid for?


The common man
Whose struggles are not his own
Destitute in your distance
Driven out of line, and
Oh, with little more than what he needs
Glimpsed from his gluttony
The common man, he finds his soul
Buried underneath a bed of lies we′re told
