Lyrics:
A show of hands who’s losing self control?
Over stimulated, running on false hope,
A war of words,
They want you on their side,
It’s all for power,
To conquer and divide.
In this world of promises,
Do our words still mean a thing?
Where’s the truth in all of this?
I can’t take this anymore,
World of promises.
The cracks are showing deep within our souls,
Society is eating itself whole,
Manifests of lies,
From tongues of fire,
Singing the agenda,
Of corporate choirs.
In this world of promises
Do our words still mean a thing?
Where’s the truth in all of this?
I can’t take this anymore
World of promises.
In this world of promises,
Trying to make sense out of this,
A slight of hand an empty kiss,
Just to get the higher score,
World of promises.
The mayday call the fear incites,
The powers that be playing all sides,
The cracks are showing in mankind,
It’s a fever dream,
World of Promises.
In this world of promises
Do our words still mean a thing?
Where’s the truth in all of this?
I can’t take this anymore
World of promises.
In this world of promises,
Trying to make sense out of this,
A slight of hand an empty kiss,
Just to get the higher score,
World of promises.
