Cast Down lyrics

Despair, emptiness

See the hatred wasted on yourself

Face down, taste the dust, it's getting harder everyday

Just to find a reason not to end it all yourself

Suicide on the street

Everywhere around you watch it breed

It begins to bury you in self-induced rejection

So now you're wasted, broken down

I see through your ignorance

Penetrate the surface of your insecure inside

Next fix, shoot it up

Looking for the place where God speaks

Every time you find Him

He just stabs you in the back again

No one hears you

You're society's infection

I won't judge you

When the blood steals life from you

Cast down and thrown away

You are the living dead

The needle numbs the pain

Of all your suffering

This is where the world of money changes nothing

Just a statistic in the shadows of the real world

The system's failing you just the way it failed me

Hell is home on the concrete where the city bleeds

America, home of the free, land of fucking disenchantment

Despair, emptiness

Isolation rapes you everyday

Face down taste the dust, digging deeper in your grave

Haven't found a reason

Haven't found a thing to fucking live for

Godless, He doesn't care

How you choose to destroy yourself

In a world that feeds on hate

You're left here just to waste away

In your cardboard prison, asphalt wasteland

No one hears you

You're society's infection

I won't judge you

When the blood steals life from you

No one sees you

You're society's infection

I won't judge you

When the blood steals life from you

Cast down and thrown away

You are the living dead

The needle numbs the pain

Of all your suffering

This is where the world of money changes nothing
