Listen Songtext
von The Forgotten

Repetition of a statement run for years
Woven through the lyrics and the visionary′s tears
Repeated to ingrain upon you
Open your eyes and listen
The same mistake is made, tried and true
Always falling prey, always acting like the rube
Fighting for answers, always fighting for air
Open your mind and listen
Open your mind and listen

It's a message straight through your heart
But you never listen
Antagonist, protagonist
Which face truly fits you?


The pendulum slams back and forth
Pushing time to increase its imaginary force
Final gravity is untold if we refuse to see
The crowd revolts, they say they′ve heard it all before
Maybe so, but they don't know the score
Off to fight the ignorance war
Game set and won
Game set and won

It's a message straight through your heart
But you never listen
Antagonist, protagonist
Which face truly fits you?
It′s a message straight through your heart
But you never listen
Antagonist, protagonist
Which one are you gonna be?

Lift your head and hear, hear me speak
These things we must, must repeat
And maybe once, oh just once
We′ll hear the words and listen
Hate the message, don't hate the messenger
You misconstrue it but I know you always knew it
It′s more fun to fight the whole damn world
If you never listen
If you never listen


It's a message straight through your heart
But you never listen
Antagonist, protagonist
Which face truly fits you?
It′s a message straight through your heart
But you never listen
Antagonist, protagonist
Which one?

Which one are you gonna be?
