lyrics

Slumped over in his own chair
Debating thoughts of quitting
One hit to keep him going
One hit his chest is bumping
It's all I've known these past 10 years
They call this life?
This bottle's always empty
One more it's never-ending
My sorrow’s never drowning
I spend my mornings shaking

It's all I've known these last 10 years
They call this life this simple thing
To take this knife and cut these strings
Please cut me down

Whole, I'm not in life and made nothing
I've lost my pride, I'm plagued with strings
Stay out of sight the darkest things
Control my life destroying me

It broke me it broke me down
You told us that you were found your god had gave you wings
It owns us it holds us down
Don't bother to wear that frown I used up everything
Why bother? I'm used to now
You bought us and sold us down the river
You knew we'd drown with no thought for where we'd lay
There's just gold, gold on your mind

Once we get through this hell that is this
We will rise up and become human and full of life
We should take back what's ours
Our lives our everything
Shed the shame of our stigma
When we can love ourselves and cut these strings

You cut and clipped our wings
Destroyed us degrade us, yet we still cut these strings
