[Verse 1]
As the weakened
Attempt to stand
The cold wind of progression
Caused their downfall
Taking what was theirs
Now you call it yours
Your thievery justified
By legislation and might
The control of majority
Never ceases to overpower
The wounded and unfortunate
Left for dead without a second thought
[Chorus]
Looking deep into a mirror
The image frightens you
What you've become, your own obstacle
Looking deep into a mirror
The image frightens you
What you've become, your own obstacle
[Verse 2]
The burden placed
On your shoulders
Causes guilt to flow
Through a once dead-end soul
Which took so much
From so many others
One choice is left
To take from yourself
What they worked
So hard to achieve
Taken by your hand of disdain
As the weakened
Attempt to stand
The cold wind of progression
Caused their downfall
Taking what was theirs
Now you call it yours
Your thievery justified
By legislation and might
The control of majority
Never ceases to overpower
The wounded and unfortunate
Left for dead without a second thought
[Chorus]
Looking deep into a mirror
The image frightens you
What you've become, your own obstacle
Looking deep into a mirror
The image frightens you
What you've become, your own obstacle
[Verse 2]
The burden placed
On your shoulders
Causes guilt to flow
Through a once dead-end soul
Which took so much
From so many others
One choice is left
To take from yourself
What they worked
So hard to achieve
Taken by your hand of disdain
