We’re Where We Were
[Verse 1]
New holocaust happening
What, are you blind?
We’re in Germany now, 1939
If you're oblivious, you've still got blood on your hands
'Cause you don't think it's wrong to kill an innocent man
We don't remember, it's much easier this way

[Chorus]
Don't tell me what they think
They tell you what to think
No one will acknowledge when they're down on their knees
You say you want the knowledge but don't want it from me
Trigger shy camera guy
Sacrilegious sacrifice
We're where we were

[Bridge]
Faces red, full of sweat
In your bed, no regrets

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
Wait my time, imposition
I know my place, my position
I get my night, it's a place
And I get my taste and my piece
And I wait my life, it's submission
I get my lie, it's a piece
And I do fake it
Sophisticated
I wipe, wait my
Feeling better than scared
Scared better than greedy
Been through it, I want it, I'll wait for you
I'm always taking it, easing you through
