Karnivool
Set Fire to the Hive
[Verse 1]
I don't know what's wrong, but I'm on fire
It sears through my hands, leaving skin on the wire
Awake in this womb with a crown sting in my self
When I listen, the same cry plays on

[Bridge]
We're slaves in this medicated cage
Make a decision to face this change
To rules they don't explain
So, why do we obey?

[Verse 2]
Politics, religion, your vision's the same
You played us, as both a cancer and a cure
Which reminds me that it's just a game
Your alibi's a sales pitch
Your pretty boy, pretty face dolled up again
A star for us to adore
And you, man, you've got to be more
'Cause this affects all

[Pre-Chorus]
It's nice to know you're with us today
I've seen you in the fog along the way
[Chorus]
I'll spit in the mouth of your god
Who whispers in the minds of our children
You've been sold again
Set fire to the hive as you flee
It's fiction, a faceless illusion
You've been had again

[Verse 3]
You swing this wrecking ball
A violent pendulum
To hypnotise them all
The writing on the wall
That we keep missing
A structure built to fall
Still we all obey

[Pre-Chorus]
It's nice to know you're with us today
I've seen you in the fog along the way

[Chorus]
I'll spit in the mouth of your god
Who whispers in the minds of our children
You've been sold again
Set fire to the hive as you flee
It's fiction, a faceless illusion
You've been had again
[Outro]
There's no second chances here
There's no second chances here
There's no second chances here
