Plato's Cave Lyrics

Album: Phaneron

Will we ever learn?

Will we ever be free?

What is the cost?

The cost of this all

Putting our faith

In the wrong hands

Our future

Is up for the highest bidder

Our lives for profit

When will you see

They don’t care about you and me

Conditional freedom

Control through division

Turning us against ourselves

Acting as a saving grace

What’s the point of explaining

When you’ve made up your mind

Turning your face away

From all of the signs

You think you reached the end

You think you have the answers

But how could you

When you’ve never asked

the right questions

I see right through you

I know you’re scared

You don’t trust yourself

To make your own choices

Escape this prison

Be your own person

Sometimes I envy you

Cause I can’t unlearn the truth

Your world is black and white

Mine’s aching grey

Your ignorance is bliss

It’s not always what it seems
