Pti – Condemnation lyrics

You're condemned to repeat the solitary beat
You march along to the song of a thousand weary feet
A thousand miles ahead
We leave a thousand behind
A thousand tiny blips on a huge timeline
When we look back
What do we see?
The same old cracks filled with the same old greed
The same old hacks and the same old thieves
The same human nature we are condemned to repeat

You're condemned to defeat what it comes
To making peace between the worldupon our backs
And the world down at our feet
While the old worlds burned in the fires of our haste
We chart a brand new course to undiscovered waste
With our eyes to the sky
It's time to question why that the truth remains
Things don't change they stay the same
With the tools we've made
The technology and trade
We're unable to replace the ugliness we face

You're condemned here beneath the general decay
There is little left and precious less to pay
So we turn our cheeks
Join in the cries of the meek
We gave away our hold on the values we've been told
In a world of souls
Time is the only toll
That we spend away every single waking day
Now that times are fierce
It's more than blades that pierce
I'd say we've come a long way if I wasn't here today

The time will come when we can celebrate
When we can raise our hands together denigrate
The greed, need, fear, theology, and hate that invokes control
Manipulates the whole
The day will come when we can take our time
When we can close our eyes and see the world shine
When condemnation takes away what we think we need to make it through the day
