We live in slavery to a past we cannot escape
And I say it's worth it to just start again again
(Again)
We've focused so long on ideals of freedom,
That it is this very belief that oppresses us
We all want to be free,
Yet we find ways to forfeit liberty
To our own impulses, to our own consumption
So I say it's worth it to build a new foundation
A new foundation
A new foundation
A new foundation
It's a past we cannot escape
This vacancy will take everything this world can offer
But what is control once we have let go of all we suffer?
Once we've let go
When we've awakened to admit we are all enslaved,
Then there is freedom in our choice to disobey
Our creeds have become a justification (justification)
To live the way that some see fit, (justification)
And no one is more hopeless
Than those blinded by the scales of content
This vacancy will take everything this world can offer
But what is control once we have let go of all we suffer?
We live in slavery to a past we cannot escape
So I say it's worth it to just start again
We've let go
We've let go
We've let go
This vacancy will take everything this world
(All that this world) can offer (all that this world offers)
But what is control (what is control)
Once we have let go of all we suffer?
We can't escape
We can't escape
We can't escape
We can't escape
So I say it's worth it to start again
And I say it's worth it to just start again again
