Downfall Songtext
von The One Hundred

There was a time when you didn′t have to think about it
The past's the past so now you′ve got to deal with it
You've got to bite your tongue or you'll be the death of us
Just meet their demands for the rest of us
We′re supplying less and they′re demanding more
It's a harsh reality that burns your tongue and core
It′s a hard pill to take and that's why
They call it the new world order

Everything that you stand for
This is your downfall
Words hit the metal wall
This is your downfall
You say that you′d take all
This is your downfall

Live to learn and you smash the faces
You have to face all the consequences


We don't have the strength or power, we forgot the threat
Ignorant to the saviours, now we′re back in debt
Acting like we was one of a kind
But we was left blind
Didn't see the signs
Now we're losing our minds
We have to change and adjust
All these regulations we follow earn their trust
It′s difficult to accept a major transition
That′s why we're on a mission

Is this how you build your empire?
Burn to the ground in your hellfire
Is this how you see the future?
′Cause we are the poor
And you're the abuser

Everything that you stand for
This is your downfall
Words hit the metal wall
This is your downfall
You say that you′d take all
This is your downfall

Live to learn and you smash the faces
You have to face all the consequences

There's nothing left for us to fight for
They′re all going dark, we're fed to the sharks
There's nothing left for us to die for
Their chains are our lives, our spirits survive


Everything that you stand for
This is your downfall
Words hit the metal wall
This is your downfall
You say that you′d take all
This is your downfall

Live to learn and you smash the faces
You have to face all the consequences
