This one of the few songs on the album with lead guitar, the only one with noise influence.
lyrics
No one said rebellion would be
Just as easy as giving in
Everyone has got a system
To assist you with your problems
But at the height of peak performance
No one speaks of what they owe us
Time and time again
How much have i wasted
Here i am still disagreeing
well i wonder who they're out there meeting
im sure they're full of shit.
I willed my face into a billboard
into a slogan to be ignored
I stand alone with no one behind me
But no one said to burn the office
Or do my best to fill their coffins
I wonder what it is gotten into me.
And though i sign my name with a Sigil
And light a candle at your vigil.
I was always right
And you were always wrong.
If you leave me all alone
I just might turn this heart to stone
It'll take a record of my teeth to recognize me.
