lyrics

STANDBY

Pick and choose what the fuck you wanted
From events create your own story
Ignore the signs in your life
Ignore coincidence

We are just prisoners watching
Our lives being run for us
Unable to do anything
To change the system that's in place

Recognize everything around you
Don’t take all that's here for granted
Your life is meaningless
If you don’t try to make an impact

We are just prisoners watching
Our lives being run for us
We must stand and fight back
And stop it all before it’s too late

Build nothing from something
To tear it down and start again
Without the power of knowledge
What is the strength you truly posses?
Ignorance is bliss
So what's the path to greatness?
With no hope and no truth
we’re all just waiting here on standby

Lower the standards now everyone is equal
Weaken our world through accommodation
Watching society decay from the inside
Failure is given a turn

Build nothing from something
To tear it down and start again
Without the power of knowledge
What is the strength you truly posses?
Ignorance is bliss
So what's the path to greatness?
With no hope and no truth
we’re all just waiting here on standby

Does everything happen for a reason?
Does it matter if you try to deny it?
How much time do we all have left here?
And how much more do you want to waste?

We aren’t just prisoners watching
Our cage has broken open
we must stand together to
overthrow this system that’s in place

No more apathy nor indifference
Now is the time to rise
Without the power of knowledge
You are completely fucking useless
so stand your ground and light the torch
and carve a path to greatness
Affect the unaffectable
We all are ready so standby

Bystanders, no standards everyone take action
united by adversity: ending hypocrisy
Pouring down like rain under a desert storm
Holding back the flood we brace for impact

We brace for impact, brace for impact
We brace for impact, brace!

Hold back the flood
we brace for impact
