I walked ahead of the game,
burned the third eye,
I believed in nothing
Sold product in your name,
I watched the sky,
still believed in nothing
Empty hands I walked encaged,
but always on the line
I believed in nothing
Watched the hand unleash its rage,
you'll learn in time to believe in nothing
As long as I can belong
As long as I can be strong
Though the call of faith is so loud
I've searched for truth for too long
So long
No we must never try to avert our eyes
and take the offer
No we can never try to arm ourselves
and push away
No we can never cry,
give up the faith when the going's rougher
No we can never try to arm ourselves
and pull away
You're a dying breed my friend,
you'll never live your life,
as though he cared for you
But my faith will never bend.
I've got friends
and loved ones to help me stumble through
You wear your silver chain,
but the cross won't stop the lies,
you believe in nothing
That's me on your silver chain,
I wrote the book but I believe in nothing
No we must never try to forgive the sins
and revoke your offer
No we can never try to arm ourselves
and push away
We're all too satisfied,
these trials make all our skin
and spirits rougher
(I'm misdirected on the outside,
but I don't live the way I live for you)
No we can never try to clear the shelves
and pull away
(maybe I'll see you on the dark side,
but there's eighty years for me to get through)
