Lyrics
[Verse 1] They taught us doubt was just delayed hope,
That fear was faith misplaced.
But the dark just grew—it ate the night,
And truth had no room to stay.
[Verse 2] They taught us silence was a prayer,
That freedom was a chain.
Now the old man sits in the empty square,
And the hearth is cold again.
[Pre-Chorus] If the spirit’s not here now,
If the light won’t fill this room,
Then the lessons were just hollow sounds—
A lie we learned too soon.
[Chorus] Oh, the lessons were false,
The lessons were lies.
We built our cages,
Called them "skies".
Oh, the lessons were false,
And the truth just died.
[Verse 3] They taught us success was just a measure,
That victory was the end.
But the future’s just a ghost’s tale,
And the present—just pretend.
[Bridge] We sold our souls for a hollow cause,
For a god that never arrives.
Now the dark just grows—it swallows the dawn,
And the truth has no place to hide.
[Outro] Oh, the lessons were false,
The lessons were lies.
We built our cages,
Called them "skies".
