Unquestioned Answers by Thrice Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Your traps are all baited, your scales are all weighted
But not resisting you would surely drive me insane
So I'm caught and convicted, my rights are restricted
The imbecile dynasty continues to reign
[Chorus]
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not, my friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
[Verse 2]
Traditions some bear, idly without a care
But determined that they stand unchanged
And those who choose to rebel just to raise up some hell
Tell me, What were you hoping to gain?
[Chorus]
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not, my friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
[Verse 3]
I can't reason with you, I speak words you can't hear
Social conditioning left you with deafened ears
So I take your face in hand, see that look in your eyes
That rigor mortis stare, that look that I despise
And so I turn from you, I walk these streets alone
Alone I search for truth, ideal that you've disowned
And wait with fingers crossed and hope you'll someday find
A way to see things though your own eyes
Your traps are all baited, your scales are all weighted
But not resisting you would surely drive me insane
So I'm caught and convicted, my rights are restricted
The imbecile dynasty continues to reign
[Chorus]
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not, my friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
[Verse 2]
Traditions some bear, idly without a care
But determined that they stand unchanged
And those who choose to rebel just to raise up some hell
Tell me, What were you hoping to gain?
[Chorus]
Your apathy of thought has led you to believe
That things are what they're not, my friend you've been deceived
The easiest route rarely leads to the truth
I see the self approval glaze your eyes
You know you're right, no need to worry why
A thousand stones remain unturned
In the wake of your unquestioned answers
And truth covered lies
[Verse 3]
I can't reason with you, I speak words you can't hear
Social conditioning left you with deafened ears
So I take your face in hand, see that look in your eyes

Alone I search for truth, ideal that you've disowned
And wait with fingers crossed and hope you'll someday find
