Concrete Lies Songtext
Lost - everything is a little confused
Win - every time you turn around you find you lose
Choose - walk away and then regret the day you did
Hide - from everyone who knew about how you occupied your mind

Remembering a time when there was something there
Beyond your cold stare
Behind the wall of stone there's someone who cares

We try to deny it
Unhappiness is pervasive through our lives
I can see it in people's eyes and their words
Separation, self-doubt, and anxiety

Stumbling aimlessly down this path we've dubbed life
Getting lost in power, greed, and selfishness
Makes you wonder what's behind the curtain
But I'm fairly certain
That if you could wake up and see,
It wouldn't make sense anyway
It would never make sense anyway.


Expand your mind
Open communication lines
The only thing we have to fear is fear itself
So many questions of ourselves
And life could flow in so many different ways
Instead of these arbitrary paths
Through a laboratory rat maze

I don't know who's inside your head
But he worried me with the words that he said
Working hard at acheiving your goals
Repressing your thoughts and inhibiting your soul

But I don't know
What they're doing to me
Well I don't know, Lord,
What they're doing to me

My dreams have got me blinded,
But I'll wake up and see tomorrow

What will you do with your consciousness?
What do you choose to hold sacred?
Unify the factions within your head
You cannot relive the life that you have led

There's more here than meets the eye
Preconceptions are based on concrete lies
I feel a little out of place
Questioning the rat race
That confines the mind behind the face

There's more here than meets the eye
What I know as truth is based on concrete lies
Feeling a little out of place
Swimming through the rat race
That encapsulates the human race

There's more here than meets the eye
Preconceptions are based on concrete lies
I feel a little out of place
Questioning the rat race
That confines the mind behind my face

There's more here than meets the eye
What I know as truth is based on concrete lies
Feeling a little out of place
Swimming through this rat race
That encapsulates the human race

There's more here than meets my eyes.
