Between Aspirations lyrics

My self effacing charity and gluttonous prosperity

Don`t move mountains of misery or stone

My never-ending loyalty to hypocritical royalty

Has cut my sense of belonging to the bone

You ask me what I want to be, I become the sum of all I see

And grow old in confusion and disgrace

The recognition of my sins, the erosion of my discipline

Won`t someone come and put me in my place?

Come and see what I`ve become

Tied down to no one

And stuck between aspirations

Now I`m thankful for my sovereignty, I know it rests on poverty

And sometimes I would rather crawl than fight

I know I`ve gone nowhere fast by walking down the narrow path

And I cringe at battle I fought out of spite

There was a time, there was a place where everybody knew my face

And everything I touched would turn to gold

But now I`ve come to realize that to see through all their fucking lies

Is to refuse to be bought or sold
