[Verse 1]
We're biding time as we wait for the signal
Sharpening blades while we wait out the storm
These cold nights are almost unbearable
But purpose keeps us warm (Warm)
Pledge allegiance while crossing our fingers
A bark with no bite, no teeth, just a roar
You're not a thorn in our side, you're a splinter
We are ready, but we're bored

[Pre-Chorus]
Just holding our place in line
And everything moves too slow now
Breaking away in time

[Chorus]
And they have the power (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
But we have the numbers now (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
It's all just a constant illusion of control
They break us like horses (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
How long will we drag their plow? (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
What will continue to be is what we allow, oh-ooh-oh

[Verse 2]
And still we worship at altars so empty
Consumption of something we don't need at all
Holes we can't fill, a never-ending song
"Again from the top now"
