Complex Terms by The Human Abstract Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2011

Careless, to try to think that we've progressed
And the consequence of walking quietly
We only know what we've been told
Self's exposed
And overloaded
And overloaded
And overloaded

These monuments built by thieves
These monuments built by thieves
Keep us contained

Polished they stand and guide us
I found a four leaf clover
Hidden within
Buried beneath my fears
And we fall, kneeling
Begging for scraps

Hands and arms stretched out
We reach for what we're given
So privileged
I'd imagine it could be the fall of man
The fall of man
We come from control
A paradigm that leads us through the valley
Into the mouths of wolves
Mouths of wolves
We are being eaten alive

And we fall, kneeling
Begging for what?

Hands and arms stretched out
We reach for what we're given
So privileged
I'd imagine it could be the fall of man

The tailor's shop has closed, closed
And we don't dress for miracles anymore
The tailor's shop has closed
And we don't dress for miracles anymore

Oh, how we believe in
All the monuments built by thieves
Oh, how we believe in
All the monuments built by thieves
Oh, how we believe in
All the monuments built by thieves
