LOYALTY

Oh loyalty, loyalty!
Where can I find ‽
Replaced by the self
In this post-modern time.
Eyes off the brother
And stuck to the prize
In this commune of self
Where culture will die
A brand of devotion
That comes at a price
You pay less in love
But you still sacrifice
You’ll find yourself lonely
And seeking advice
In this commune of self
Where culture will die
All of your words
And all of your deeds
They don’t mean a thing
Without loyalty
I’ll be loyal to you
You’ll be loyal to me
But let’s see what happens
When we disagree
While we’re fighting corpses
And coughing up pride
In this commune of self
Where culture will die
It's a season of selfishness
Before you decide
To tone down the ego
And step down beside
We’ll gladly enjoy it
Before you backslide
In this commune of self
Where culture will die
All of your words
And all of your deeds
They don’t mean a thing
Without loyalty
When of our plans
And all of our seams
Are broken and torn
By disloyalty
Oh, you’re here to be worshiped
But there sleeps the lie
That stage is an altar
You’re pushing aside
So you’ll keep on dancing
To self glorify
In this commune of self
Where culture will die
Ao you’ll keep on dancing
To self glorify
In this commune of self
Where culture will die

Second Hand
02:55

Wasting my time
With the babble
Living my life
Like a battle
Treading the tide
Fighting uphill
Struggle along
Emotions are strong
From all this
Second hand sadness
First hand madness
From all of the noise
I fill my life with
Feeling the lies
Making labels
Wondering why
I’m not able
To break through the sky
While I’m disabled
From being withdrawn
And carrying on
With all this
Second hand sadness
First hand madness
From all of the noise
I fill my life with
First hand crassness
Second hand gladness
From bringing them down i
In my unhappiness
Now that I’ve tried
With the ego
I’ll step out of line
To be free from
The feelings of pride
And despairing
From singing along
Comparing the song
To all this
Second hand sadness
First hand madness
From all of the noise
I fill my life with
First hand crassness
Second hand gladness
From bringing them down
In my unhappiness
Second hand sorrow
Fear tomorrow
From all of the troubles
That I borrow
