A Revolution Betrayed

from Manifesto by The Anima Effect

/

lyrics

It’s finally come to this. A vision so corrupt. I was just another subject, for you to torture and judge from above. It’s all over now, six feet underground. It’s all over now. Six feet underground dead and buried. The American Dream is a lie that they sell to keep us in chains, enslaved. To the whims of the ruling class. Go ahead and chase that dollar ‘cause you can’t see the top when you’re drowning at the bottom. Everybody thinks that they’re gonna be something when the wisest amongst us know we’re all fucking nothing. Our revolution was doomed from the very beginning starting with the moment we began to plot. Our sweet escape, hidden from the world just underneath it all. The Human race will always be led by fear. Fear of one another. Fear of fighting , the fear of dying, the fear of being alive.
The clock is ticking no time for thinking about the life we once had. Been down here so long I don’t even know if I’m going to get out of here. I’m not afraid of death ‘cause I have never truly felt alive, I’ve always been dead inside. There is no escaping our fate, we’re all trapped at the end of the day. I’m not afraid of death ‘cause I have never truly felt alive, I’ve always been dead inside. There is no hope for any of us, I can see that now. (See it clear as day). We exist only to suffer as we slowly decay. There is no hope for any of us, our lives will be reduced to dust.
