It's a premeditated war
Meticulously, it's implored
Addiction is their loaded gun
Designed to take the place of love

Past is behind us
Future defines us
Nightmare inside us
Feed on the remains

Systematically, we seethe
Pharmaceutically, we bleed
Dependently, we take a knee
My acceptance is not defeat

Past is behind us
Future define us
Nightmares inside us
Feed on the remains

Locked inside their gilded cage
Locked inside their gilded cage
Locked inside their gilded cage
Locked inside their gilded cage

Past is behind us
Future defines us
Nightmares inside us
Feed on the remains
