Unchecked Ambitions Lyrics


Does the end justify the means
If it means we are losing everything?
Do our goals out weigh compassion?
In a world of hollow words
We need action
But all I see is pain and suffering
All in the name
Of a false claim of progressing
But we can't progress if we don't move
Since when did they ever care about you?
You're just a number to them
A nameless face
And they lead you to your death bed
At breakneck pace

Can't we just set aside our differences and help each other?
No, we're too busy killing one another
Fuck! This is just ridiculous
Everywhere I go, I see no one left to trust

Dethrone the king!
Drag him through the mud
Take him from his home
Fill the streets with blood
It didn't have to be this way
We didn't want to do it
But you gave us no choice
Now everything is ruined

You sit up on high
While we toil in the streets
And you call it anarchy
When we demand peace

Our backs are broken from carrying the weight
You sit there and tell us to blame it all on fate
I don't believe this
We won't learn from our mistakes
History repeats
Images flood my mind of blood soaked sheets
No amount of water can cleanse these deeds

Eye for an eye
And tooth for a tooth
Now we are blind
And cannot chew

Can't we just set aside our differences and help each other?
No, we're too busy killing one another
Fuck! This is just ridiculous
Everywhere I go, I see no one left to trust

You'll burn for what you've done
