Hollow Applause

Verse 1

Snake

Eyes shut

Wide open mouth

Feeding on the poison

Everything is backwards now

Flipping the script for a hollow applause

I see the cracks in the foundation of your laws

Stumble

Falling

Down a hole

Nobody wants to take control

Chorus

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

Logic is a ghost

Sanity is leaving the building

We are losing the host

I won't stay silent

Verse 2

Plastic

Painted smiles

Vultures circling for miles

Clutching at a shadow in the rain

Buying up the pleasure and selling all the pain

Tell me

How it feels

To lose the grip on what is real

Trophies for the losers

Lessons for the users

Staring at a mirror with a filter on the glass

Watching every fiber of the future turn to ash

I see

I hear

I speak

Chorus

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

Logic is a ghost

Sanity is leaving the building

We are losing the host

I won't stay silent

Bridge

Broken clocks

Locked boxes

Cold comfort

You say it's progress

I say it's madness

You say it's progress

I call it madness

You call it progress

I call it madness

Chorus

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

I won't stay silent

Logic is a ghost

Sanity is leaving the building

We are losing the host

I won't stay silent

Outro

Turn it off

Turn it off

Shut the door

I can't take it anymore

No more

No more

Quiet no more
