piece in our time - belvedere (band) lyrics
[verse 1]
every wrong decision’s like a bomb inside my head
watch you remake mistakes with existential dread
this brings us bouts of enervation
like a bad tune that worms into my mind
try to forget it, but i can’t leave it behind
and those wasted years of repetition
and still, the band plays on
[chorus 1]
skip right to the end, or just go right back to the start?
i’m dancing in the ashes as the world just falls apart
all the same old stories written by a brand new liar
and all that it requires is freedom
but not without a price, we all suspect device
these screams for vengeance
there’s blood out on the street
while you just loop the program and repeat
[verse 2]
heedless of the consequence to reap what you will sow
lay the blame on someone else to misdirect your own
it’s hard to gauge the loss of innocence
you set the bar; you cast the die
dead mothers, fathers, sons, and daughters
but never tell us why
they question, where’s the retribution
[chorus 2]
should i take a dive, or should i go a few more rounds?
i’m crying on the sidelines as the final buzzer sounds
all the same old butchers with a different badge in hand
and all that we demand is freedom
but not without a price, we all suspect device
these screams for vengeance
there’s blood out on the street
while you just loop the program and repeat
you watch over us; who watches you?
you watch over us; who watches you?
you watch over us; who watches you?
you watch over us; who watches
