Born in the flood, finger-paint sets Black marketed fresh canons, forget me not Epitaph, airbrush death White T's, wife beaters, button up, flesh
In between the lines, of the law Underneath the veil we dig our We navigate the globe trying to find a pattern to the mold a family to feed theres nowhere we wont go
But what if caught? They said Im a Shot at the check Found his throat slit
spray paint on the teleprompter (But what if caught?) screams that hes seen a monster (They Im a snitch) Mayday, theres bloodstains on his (Shot at the point) Mayday, they say that hes berserk
Sometimes, when I wanna shut out world Wanna rip up page Wanna out this heart Wanna get up on this
And my become percussion And my fists become the And I pound on table it gives me something to say
Then I think about That Ive seen right in of me That I dont believe Gimme one of mikes
Let me let em the way that it is Is not how its be Not if we dont let em get of us The tensions, no threat
Its just a fence across the That already ready to walk solid footsteps, let em put up obstacles And prove that it isnt possible, fuck
We give em any weight True liberty and at stake Peace will never pass my life until my last day
It was eight in the bat cave the cracks in the plaster collapsed And gave way to in the pavement Mayday,
Put it on For the passengers and this is a disaster Where the are the rescue workers?
Not far off, on a cop car In the hall a Pop-Tart Sipping in the rock bar Everyone climb to the frontline, canceled
All hands on to pull, survivors from the landfill Onlookers, passers-by brush off your off that rubble Break from your standstill

We our own Cider House Rules To keep alive rituals that prove worth Search for we can trust we can lock into
This is madness, salvage can't bandage Hope, when its damaged or compassion Not enough in the van When is collapsing, our mode of action
Broadcast through the glass, all we can Donate with the scraps from the salad to balance, emotions invalidated And staged on 4:3
ballast for sadness, lives shattered Are standard fare for cameras and stare No abracadabras, no answers or mantras for disasters Remastered or plastered, we got it all Do you know the you're backing?
Its another man down, mother gone Child drowned, another silenced Solitude, kind of strong I miss you, another strung
in action Another page is burned Turned, to ashes Dust off the flags and the
We'll never find you the life of love we knew These lightning are trouble Who cant count the strikes punished through?
The bonds we thought would never And never and never change and never fade But the rage Of you to their mistakes
In the lines (Signs of a the movement) from the crowd (Outside of the law) Causes we
that trace instructions For descendants in the on the run (Underneath the veil) Failures we to occur And bring for our sins (In the lines) In the lines
In between the lines, of the law Underneath the In the lines, outside of the law Underneath the
In between the lines, of the law the veil (We our foundations) In between the lines, of the law In the lines
