The Fall
A Plea for Purging Lyrics

One foot in front of the other.
Continuing to move forward through life, step by step.

Fall in line.
Conform to societal norms and expectations.

Since day one this has been damned.
From the beginning, our way of life has been doomed to fail.

We blindly follow anything that we're shown.
Without question, we accept and adopt the beliefs and values of others.

Open your eyes.
Wake up and see the truth.

This is a lie.
Our current way of life is based on falsehoods and deception.

We're all living a lie.
None of us are truly living an authentic life.

Maybe we're the same, no but I despise you.
Although we may have similarities, I still can't stand you.

I know I'm nothing like you.
I will not conform to your expectations or beliefs.

Since day one I knew this was wrong.
From the beginning, I could sense that our way of life was misguided.

I'm no puppet, I dance for no one.
I refuse to be controlled or manipulated by anyone else.

Open my eyes.
Continually seek out and acknowledge the truth.

I refuse to live a lie.
I will not base my life on falsehoods or deception.

I refuse to fall in line.
I will not conform to societal norms or expectations.

We're losing footholds.
We are losing our footing and stability in life.

We're losing our faith.
We are losing our trust and confidence in ourselves and others.

We're losing our futures.
Our prospects and possibilities for the future are diminishing.

We're losing our sanity.
Our mental stability and clarity are being compromised.

I'm losing my foothold.
Personally, I am losing my stability and security in my life.

I'm losing my sanity.
Personally, my mental stability and clarity are being compromised.
