Cold in July - Failure by Design Lyrics

I told you
Not to forgive me
A friend of a friend
The world moves on
You won't see me again
Ah!

Prayers have a mark on their forearm
They shut them out
Keep them quiet
Lies lie behind these blinded eyes

They will fall like a house of cards
It's alive and well
In the hearts and minds

Do I belong here?

Do I belong here?
Street corners move like chess pieces
A concept of time - to repeat again
Will we reach the end?
Assimilate nothing!

Bred to hate
Told to fear
"Pain is temporary"
When love is a distant memory
I knew the risks
But I took my chances
Stuck between the devil and the deep blue sea
You built your bridges on a failed foundation

I can't seem to wake up
From this illusion
Sometimes I wonder if my life is ones and zeros
State your name!
Failure by design!

I feel no fear
No hate
No remorse
Dis-instinctive divorce

A broken bottle sitting next to me
And it hurts to breathe
Yes, I know I'm not proud
Do I have to plead?
It returns like clockwork
Now my feet don't touch the ground

We aren't so different
We aren't so different
We aren't so different
We aren't so different now

Do I belong here?
Street corners move like chess pieces
A concept of time - to repeat again
Will we reach the end?
Assimilate nothing!

It's a choice right now
Between love and...
War!
