Counting the Books While the Library Burns by The Great City Lyrics

In these moments I break free
Lose my mind for as long as I please
Take time to destroy myself and everything around me
For moments, and hours in time
I remain the same - I'm no longer blind
Who are these people I see in front of me?
Do I need to show my face
Or can I just lie and disguise myself?

Disregard the beliefs of others, take a closer look
My moral compass is pointing away
From where I was expecting
Does anyone else feel the hatred inside, like me?
Let it out, find a way to release
Everything inside, that you felt went missing
Fuck your expectations of me
I see the hate in your eyes
When you're looking at me
I am everything you don't want
The world to be, I am free
Freedom, equality, lies in our country?
I don't see it, I don't believe it
Propaganda propping up before our pupils, stand up
They've been inseminating us with false information
Praying on the sheep that pray on the leaders
Follow us today, tomorrow will come
They're standing above us, wondering why
We're trying to run these streets ourselves
If I had the world paused to myself for a day
I'd do everything to cause the world array
Nobody gets a break from life
We're being watched constantly
Stay the fuck out of my head
It's my place to be, only willing to share
Everything I have with the ones like me
We gather together, to say we hate the world
But we love the things they try to take away
Let us be free; let our blood flow green
