Walking Anachronism

Living your life in the past
Defeat never comes too fast
Worshiping what never was
Dying for a new lost cause
You may not yet be too lost
You can skirt the Devil's cost
No such thing as simpler times
Live in the now or get left behind
Images from history
Feed you lies through artistry
Homemaker wife and three kids
Breadwinner man, white picket fence
You may not yet be too lost
You can skirt the Devil's cost
No such thing as simpler times
Live in the now or get left behind
Get your head out of your ass
Traditions aren't meant to last
Slow to rouse but I believe
That you can change what you perceive
Walking anachronism
Head stuck in the clouds of deceit
Walking anachronism
Your blindness will be your own defeat
Shame!
Unto this elder propaganda
Filtered down through aeons
Used to infect new generations
Perverting the reality
Of so-called "better days"
When men were men
A fallacy
A smokescreen of niceties
Preventing the truth from being seen
Fanning the flames of identity
For a nation that has never been
Encouraging violent action
Against those who never meant you any harm
All because of some dark nostalgia
Brought to you in an atmosphere of wicked charm
Blood!
Is a meaningless indicator
You put so much faith into
Ascribing worth to what we all have
Killing your fellow man
For an outdated ideal
Of what it means to be
Borne of this land
Your suffering will be of your own making
As you learn for what you truly strive
A hell of your own creation
With your own hands you built a cage in which to die
A regime propped up on falsehoods
Where will you go when you yourself don't fit the mold
Nowhere to run from the gods that you erected
Trying to resurrect an empire of old
Walking anachronism
Walking anachronism
Walking anachronism
Walking anachronism
