Paranoia - 2.97 Lyrics

I know when I was younger I believed
That this was a place of wonder and hope
That everything they said was the undeniable truth
And they promised so many incredible things
On the billboards, on the commercials
But they're lying to you, they always have been
They're lying to you, they always have been
They're lying to you, they always have been
They're lying to you, they always have been
They're lying to you, they always have been

First sign of daylight has graced this land at last
It robs us of foresight so we repeat the past
Four years betrayed
Three more I paid
For everything you never gave to me

As you're martyred on the very cross
That you make and flaunt out of deceit
Ask yourself exactly what it cost
In the end, in the end my friend
There is nothing we'll receive

How can we put any of our faith in you
You've never, never told the truth

After this I'm sure we won't return
Since our journey, there was nothing earned
Oceans rose and fell with every breath
We drew in vain within the depths
Of your cruel machine
In this labyrinth nothing will remain
Even though the sign has changed
To delusions of relief
Betrayed, now we will find ourselves alone
For what sin did we atone
What can we believe
Motherf*cking liar

As you're martyred on the very cross
That you make and flaunt out of deceit
Ask yourself exactly what it cost
In the end, there's nothing we'll receive
As you're martyred on the very cross
There's nothing
