Karnivool - Set Fire To The Hive lyrics

rate me

<BR>

I don't know what's wrong but I'm on fire,<br>

it seers through my hands, leaving skin on the wire<br>

Awake in this womb with a crown sting in my self<br>

When I listen, the same cry plays on.<br>

<br>

We're slaves<br>

In this medicated cage<br>

make a decision to face this - change.<br>

The rules they don't explain<br>

So why do we obey?<br>

<br>

Politics, religion, your vision's the same<br>

You played us, as both a cancer and a cure<br>

Which reminds me that it's just a game<br>

You're alibi - a sales pitch<br>

Your pretty boy, pretty face dolled up again<br>

A star for us to adore<br>

And you man you've got to be more<br>

Cause this effects all.<br>

<br>

It's nice to know you're with us today<br>

I've seen you in the fall along the way.<br>

<br>

I spit in the mouth of your god<br>

who whispers in the minds of our children<br>

You've been sold again.<br>

Set fire to the hive as you flee<br>

It's fiction, a faceless illusion<br>

You've been had again.<br>

<br>

You swing this wrecking ball<br>

A violent pendulum<br>

to hypnotise them all.<br>

<br>

The writing on the wall,<br>

That we keep missing<br>

A structure built to fall<br>

Still we all obey.<br>

<br>

It's nice to know you're with us today<br>

I've seen you in the fog along the way.<br>

<br>

I spit in the mouth of your god<br>

who whispers in the minds of our children<br>

You've been sold again<br>

Set fire to the hive as you flee<br>

It's fiction, a faceless illusion<br>

You've been had again.<br>

<br>

There's no second chances here<br>

There's no second chances here<br>

There's no second chances here.<br>

<BR><BR>
