Two eyes doesn't mean double vision
I never questioned this stance but now
I've been seeing things
I can hear a voice in the distance
Trying to turn my attention to their truth
Someone's moving behind the curtain
I point it out to my friends
But they don't see a thing
I just keep my synaptic active
To prepare for the day that they do
Cos this ain't how it ends
(And they'll say)
Now I think it's funny I feel distant
(Let's hear it)
I'd run away if it'd make any difference
(For the post-moderation)
I'd look up my childhood crushes
(For tolled salivation)
But they've all have their own children since
(Who cares so much)
And even if their hearts tarnish
(About these things)
They've gold wedding bands to hide the green
(Availed denomination)
Pearly gates to show from her past or his mouth
(The 'so shall' domination)
He too bears the burden of a bulbous belly
Yeah, yeah, I know, I know this veil ain't real
And still it never fails to fall or send me reeling
I awaken to the same ceiling
And I can't seem to shake this sick feeling

I don't need surgery to keep my smile fixed
Ever confident, never nervous
For I feel nothing
I work hard and come from a respected family
We take care of each other, we do
Now all the pieces keep falling faster
(We won't live until we shed this skin)
Your letters spelling disaster
(Oh, to be free again)
I wish I was in Paris getting plastered
(A vestige interest in the instrumental moment)
Cos all this masquerading's started my façade fading
(You'll know it when)
Turned my quiet heart to hating
Whatever
It is that we've been waiting for (it)
Cos this ain't how it ends
(When they'll say)
That every word that I'm speaking
(Let's hear it)
Will poison the chance that you're listening
(For drained health and elation)
I know that you think you'd be missing out
(Brain cell annihilation)
With an answer that we can't make out or make up
(Who cares so much)
But even if we black out and break up
(About these things)
It's just a breath 'fore we're looking back, laughing out
(Pupil dilation)
Cos every end's a beginning, beggin' to get back in
(More light to the patient)
You know I'll come around, if you just let me sleep (in)
With each wave more violent than the last
I'll keep my thoughts silent till they pass
We're not ready yet
They'll say you've got to build your tolerances now and then
Make your heart a callus with thicker skin
I just can't seem to shake this sick feeling

The more they interfere to forestall me
The clearer I hear her calling me, calling me
I must have struck a nerve cos someone's following me
I pull over to the shoulder of the freeway
My history profiled on the licensed registry
The shepherd keeps a careful eye on his personal inventory

We're the same
We're the same
We're the same
We're the-
We're the-
We're the-
We're ashamed!
(We’re the same!)

We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
So come on, child, you've slept enough
And I know you're tired but I'm waking you up
(We're the same)
There is much to be done, and we're right on the cusp
Of this shit getting real, I mean really, really fucked
(We're ashamed)
Every sheep for the shearing waiting around non-plussed
Trading branding irons for brand-name cuts
(We're the same)
We were born in labor, baptized in dust
Given life anew as a living trust
(We're ashamed)
With every hair numbered and cross-referenced
For each soul they claim to save, they have added interest
(We're the same)
With a price on your head, what you think matters not
Every credit card statement, every lie you've bought
(We're ashamed)
Rates our exchanged faith for the next fiat
On the blotter paper, the blood don't clot
(We're the same)
It just bleeds you dry and then leaves you to rot
In a dead end job till at last you drop
(We're ashamed)
Into this old noose, with the rope drawn taut
Left with your hands bound so they'll never be caught
(We're the same)
You may sabotage our education
To a calculated chaos born of confusion
(We're ashamed)
A controlled market through the inflation
Truly euthanasia to waste on the young
(We're the same)
But, we've caught you now, and we're cutting your funds
We outnumber you over a million to one
(We're ashamed)
It's a sharp weapon, but the point's left blunt
There's no skill to the game, no challenge to the hunt
(We're the same)
With each target deaf, blind, and reticent
Got your ducks in line for the same false front
(We're ashamed)
Cos when free will costs even ten percent
False tongues speak lies over Catholic hunts
(We're the same)
From the cathepsin to the cathexis
I'll bear the stigmatic focus of the anti-catechist
(We're ashamed)
With each catalytic pill slowly slitting my wrists
So when I raise my hand, see my bloody fist
(We're the same)
May have killed brain cells, but I've kept my wits
And I'd rather go sooner to have known and said this
(We're ashamed)
I've peaked at the end, where the answer sits
All the rest is just problems and more questions
(We're the same)
Hear the classes getting loud and the teacher getting pissed
In the end this pattern goes 666
(We're ashamed)
Soon my name's showing up on every government list
Free speech shouldn't cost, let alone be a risk
(We're the same)
So when I die young, it'll prove me right
Cos it won't be pills, swear it won't be the knife
(We're ashamed)
No matter how hard it gets, I'm in this for life
And I'm never giving up till we make things right
(We're the same)
God gave me this voice, so I can't stay quiet
They can't kill this love, I'll come back to fight
(We're ashamed)
To return each star and remove each stripe
From each prism cell, we'll refract the light
(We're the same)
To reveal each move, catch the thieves in the night
Make them share what's left and return our rights
(We're ashamed)
Though it may still shine from a hormone diet
This knowledgeable fruit's grown overripe
(We're the same)
And robbed his breath, birth absorbed he
When the planets line up, every eye shall see
(We're ashamed)
That this invite-only disparity party
Has brought enough despair to the already broken-hearted
(We're the same)
In the wake of greed, in the name of flow-charting
Leaving broken-homes where once were gardens
(We're ashamed)
See it's our pale horse that we're riding in on
Bringing pestilence as a plague of love
(We're the same)
With hell at our heels and heaven catching on
It's the hanged man, it's the crux fiction
(We're ashamed)
It's the pentagram, it's the pentagon
It's david's star, it's the pyramid song
(We're the same)
What was once upright now is upside down
And Isaiah, it's a revelation
(We're ashamed)
2368, 2701 Means a way out
And if I can, you know I'm bringing everyone

We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same
We're ashamed
We're the same

(We're the same)
(We're the same)
(We're the same)
