Flicker
Theocracy
Sometimes I feel like I just don't belong here
Like a shadow cast from a time long past
I'm swallowed up and dissipating
I feel so out of phase and so invisible
It's disorienting, alienating
Little stranger, welcome to the world!
Do you ever feel like you just don't belong here?
Me, I've always known this isn't home
I'm starting to feel so disconnected
A stranger in a strange and growing ever stranger land
In a world that I don't understand
So misdirected
Trapped inside a world that buried Mozart in a pauper's grave
And said: Give us Barabbas
Crucified Christ and turned away
Elected fools to lead us
Rejected truth
See us spiraling down
Shall we enter the last days?
Out of place and out of time
Oh tell me, what's the value of a life
In a modern day and age
Where monsters cling to evil ways
I can't shake the feeling I just don't belong
But we flicker for a moment
Flicker for a moment, then we're gone
I don't belong here
I don't belong here
Pleasure slaves indulging every manner of perversion
If technology's the God we feed
Our sacrifice is full submersion
Life and friendships ended over stupid politicians
All the rhetoric and superstitions
Life on a screen
A simulated world that buried Mozart in a pauper's grave
And said: Give us Barabbas
Crucified Christ and turned away
This world feels so synthetic
Lost apathetic
While tragedy vampires drink blood of the fallen
Out of place and out of time
Oh tell me, what's the value of a life
In a modern day and age
Where monsters cling to evil ways
I can't shake the feeling I just don't belong
But we flicker for a moment
Flicker for a moment, then we're gone
Centuries of deep corruption
Led to compromise
Practicing our counterfeit morality
The great disguise
And I don't belong here
I'm just a weary traveller
This world has lost sight of the value of a life
Out of place and out of time
Oh tell me, what's the value of a life
In a modern day and age
Where monsters cling to evil ways
I can't shake the feeling I just don't belong
But we flicker for a moment
Flicker for a moment, then we're—
