Protest The Hero - An Apathetic New World Lyrics






Tonight I sat alone on the steps and stared into the blank sky; stars cloaked by smog, the poison of our own. And as the bitter air bit down I held my breath and thought of all the others on their backs. How do you organize resistance against something that's not even there(but still killing you)? Dirt covered fists screaming indignantly, midigate to out turned palms pleading admittedly. Raping people of their hope and the sky of all its stars. They're dying at your feet but 'who cares who they are.' (right?) There's no place like home. "It's like filling an empty glass from an empty bottle." and it's stricken by rigor mortis with your hand on the throttle. Grasping at a chance through a wall of austerity and a fence of police enforced by democratic vulgarity. Two percent controlling the power; controlling yo, controlling me, controling the borders of democracy. So it's you, and it's me and we're up against a fence, control or be controlled by only two percent. So it's you, and it's me and we're up against a fence, control or be controlled, because only we can set us free.

  2. T.... ....

    I fucking love this band

  3. P.... ....

    Lemme me clarify this argument Protest the Heros genre is PROTEST THE HERO! they are their own genre. yeah yeah they mix punk prog metal and everything else you guys want to toss in that boiling genre pot but at the end of the day they are still just plain ole Protest the Hero. It always amazes me to see people argue over their genre like its a dick measuring contest. just fruit for thought.

    no one gives a fuck post-hardcore, hardcore, metal, metalcore. genres are just an easy handle for a general style and sound of music, and in case you fuck faces haven't noticed you are listening to the music right now whilst bitching amongst each about pointless bullshit fuck yourselves in the face and shut the fuck up maybe read a book or something.
    WHOO PROTEST!
