Thrice
The Abolition of Man
[Verse]
Wake up everyone, it's not too late
To save the remnants of our hearts, so stop giving up
Our last shot at love, our only chance to find the meaning of
The beat beneath the blood

[Chorus 1]
We laugh at honor and are shocked when
We find knives in our backs
We follow those who cheat and steal
Look in my eyes, you won't find your way back
Our only compass smashed under our own heels

[Bridge]
Reason abandoned
To appetites and addicts' arms
Shotguns and silence
Have always been the best charms

[Verse]
Wake up everyone, it's not too late
To save the remnants of our hearts, so stop giving up
Our last shot at love, our only chance to find the meaning of
The beat beneath the blood

[Chorus 2]
We laugh at honor and are shocked when
We find knives in our backs
We follow those who cheat and steal
Look in my eyes, you won't find your way back
Our only compass smashed under our own heels and our iron will
[Outro]
The abolition of man is within the
The reach of science
But are we so far gone
That we'll try it?
