Further Deeper

I feel deflated
let down by heroes
walls of silence
soak up the echos
of my ideals
sold down the river
I blame my own
naive behaviour
time again
I’m a complete beginner
I have a theory
too complicated
to explain now
don’t make me waste it
but you should realise that
for your freedom
I might just hurt you
but I didn’t mean to
Our flesh and blood
in mute agreement
we stand like idols
we should be kneeling
a single signal
I’ll flick the lever
and we’ll all go falling
further deeper
When the day comes calling
that’s when we’ll go falling down
won’t we all go falling down?
