Black Masks & Gasoline lyrics | |
Simply because you can breathe
Doesn't mean you're alive or that you really live
This life has taken it's toll,
And she just doesn't know how much more she can give
But here, at the top of the world
Where I raise my hands and I clench my fists
They stand before me below,
Demanding the answers with flips of a switch
And I don't understand where you got this idea
So deeply ingrained in your head
(That this world) is something that you must impress
Because I couldn't care less
A need for revolution rising,
It crawls to the surface, gasping for air
And we're not putting up with this planet
One more day, much less one more year
And I don't understand where you got this idea
So deeply ingrained in your head
(That this world) is something that you must impress
Because I couldn't care less
So here, and now
In our rotting nation
The blood, it pours
It's all in our hands
Now, we live in fear of our own potential
To win, to lose;
It's all in our hands now
And I have an American Dream
But it involves black masks and gasoline
One day I'll turn these thoughts into screams
On a world that turned its back down on me
And I don't understand where you got this idea
So deeply ingrained in your head
(That this world) is something that you must impress
Because I couldn't care less
