"Beguile The Time" lyrics

"Beguile The Time"

If I could stay mad enough maybe I'd leave
But you've got to understand this runs twenty-two years deep
And everyone wants it all, everyone needs a place
You can destroy, or you can create
All I know is all that I know
And I know we all just beguile the time
But it all catches up and it's all so fucked up
And only time will tell

Oh, whoa, how it echoes
Oh, whoa, when it echoes
Hits like a ton of feathers when it echoes

Common ground can't be found
From atop a hill looking down, look around
Take me to sleep, come on, put me to weep
Can't you see that you've given your souls up for keeps?

Oh, whoa, how it echoes
Oh, whoa, when it echoes
Hits like a ton of feathers when it echoes

We send in poor people to fight other poor people
We send in our brothers and sisters
And daughters and sons, there's no difference
We send them to kill
While we sit on our asses
And watch green screens infotain all day long
And it hits like a ton of feathers when it echoes
