[Intro]
We live in slavery
To a past we cannot escape
And I say it's worth it
To just start again
Again

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
We've focused so long
On ideals of freedom
That it is this very belief
That oppresses us
We all want to be free
Yet we find ways to forfeit liberty
To our own impulses
To our own consumption

[Pre-Chorus 1]
So, I say it's worth it
To build a new foundation
A new foundation, a new foundation
A new foundation
It's a past we cannot escape
[Chorus]
This vacancy
Will take everything
This world can offer
But what is control
Once we have let go
Of all we suffer?

[Post-Chorus]
...Once we've let go

[Verse 2]
When we've awakened
To admit we are all enslaved
Then there is freedom
In our choice to disobey

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Our creeds have become
A justification (Justification)
To live the way that some see fit (Justification)
And no one is more hopeless
Than those blinded by the scales
Of content

[Chorus]
This vacancy
Will take everything
This world can offer
But what is control (What is control)
Once we have let go (We have let go)
Of all we suffer?
[Bridge]
We live in slavery
To a past we cannot escape
So, I say it's worth it
To just start again

[Refrain]
We've let go
We've let go
We've let go
Yeah

[Chorus]
This vacancy
Will take everything
This world can offer
But what is control (What is control)
Once we have let go (We have let go)
Of all we suffer?

[Outro]
We can't escape
We can't escape
We can't escape
We can't escape
So, I say it's worth it
To start again
