Lyrics

From underneath
..............................................

I know that compassion is all out of fashion
And anger is all the rage..
Grow up and give in to that cynical spin
That you see on most every page
We all know what's wrong with the system
How the people are puppets and fools
If they're not strong, it will trick them
They'll get used up like factory tools:
The kids just give up in those schools..

...Yeah, but what is it, really, that's keeping me
From living a life that's true?
When the worries speak louder than wisdom
It drowns out all the answers I knew
So I'm tossed on the waves on the surface
Still, the mystery's dark and deep
With a much more frightening stillness..
Underneath

Hopelessness always comes easy
But "easy" does not make it right
Courage can look past that surface
But fear will still put up a fight
When I get scared and scattered
And I don't know where to begin
Why even care; it doesn't matter
Why fight when you know you can't win?
It's easier just to give in
( Chorus )
