Victim of the Cause

from Drone Empire by Adaje

/

lyrics

you're more fragile than a feather picked off the bird. You have so much to say to everyone and yet everyone around you is singing to a single somber tune. Wasting your breath for your own benefit, when there's a world of problems that yearns for blind faith. Nothing is ever free. Especially a free country. For someone who can't stand this soil you abuse its gimmicks like no other. Everyday a new chapter to write for that long sleeve you throw your heart on. Selling yourself short has never come so easy. If true love has been in my orbit then please make a fucking landing already so i can give it all away to someone who lives with the memories of a real smile. I can make it real. I can make it last, and i can make you feel like the past will be just that. Pummeling innocence straight into the ground. So horrific that i dare not make a sound. Just turn around and stare straight into the sky and hope that better days will look us straight in the eyes. I won't become a victim of the cause. And if not for the sake of doing what's right, end it so she can sleep easy tonight, and fill her broken heart with love again. I swear to fucking God i'll fight this shit till the end. This is where we were meant to stand. In between the ghost of our brothers, and the monsters they've become.
