Everything I'd know all that I'd become molded under your thumb Still transmitting hands on my throat using code to hide our world It's no fair trade my questions for your answers It's no fair trade the lying lines you paint Ageless soul of wonder with what gold do I pay for thee? A cold persistence sold to generations your blindfold almost working Consumed by your role your greedy dictates I'm running out of room It's no fair trade the mechanistic pressure It's no fair trade your tunnels for my mind Ageless soul of wonder with what gold do I pay for thee? [instrumental] It's no fair trade your drama for my lifetime Been lied to from long before my birth There you stand drawing lines around me I don't have to be bad ...just don't want to be you Ageless soul of wonder with what gold do I pay for thee? Nobody move, nobody gets hurt [repeat x4]
