Trilobite - Split & Divide

Run away you only fill me with fear
Behind your status you overtake
Push with enormous stake
Through lies you hide the evil minds
Who pull the strings and call it protection
Their lives you so meagerly take
To show us you're the ones with the gavel
But when you swing it I see no justice
Your aim's so reckless
Keep swinging, you only seem to miss
Run down into the ground
But still you play your hand
Cards close to the chest
Push your state so you can change the blame
Hate is (festered)
Fear is (placed)
You push your product (as we get pushed in a cage)
Beaten (battered)
Stained for (life)
We live in anguish (we're left with no pride)
Crack. Watch the glass split and divide
Watch the red and the blue and the white disguise
Hear it shatter, let it scream, let it feed you lies
Taste oppression in the shards that reflect your eyes
Let your gods and your kings with their suits and ties
Turn a deaf ear to all the pleas and cries
Let selfish ambition take and override
Let the others be set aside
And from that house of glass that I can see right through
You play a martyr and a pauper as you pick and choose
Let the mirrors reflect all that you can take
Dreams are burned, replaced only with hate
Crack. Watch the glass split and divide
Watch the red and the blue and the white disguise
Feel it splinter as thorns jab in your side
Feel deception in the roses as they hide your crimes
Let your virtue and your terror go side by side
Have your violence and aggression be justified
Still all bow down to the suits and ties
Watch the glass split and divide
