The Light
Cold Kingdom Lyrics

Same face same shade
We are all the same, putting on the same face and hiding behind the same mask.

We pull your rope
We control your actions and manipulate you to do our bidding.

Stepping in line, walking in line
We are walking in the same direction, following the crowd and not questioning authority.

Get off your hope
Stop hoping for change or something better, because it will never come.

Beat down repeat another day
Our days are repetitive and mundane, with no hope for improvement or change.

Always the same
There is no variety or difference in our lives, it is always the same.

Always unborn
We are never given a chance to truly live or experience life to its fullest.

Your conscience takes form
Your inner voice and morality become more clear and prominent as you realize the truth of the situation.

Holding on to self obsession
We become obsessed with ourselves and our own survival, not caring about the needs or wants of others.

Setting off a chain reaction
Our actions have consequences, and they start a never-ending chain of events that we have no control over.

Don't break me down
Please don't destroy me or crush my spirit, as I strive to keep moving forward.

Believe me now
Take my word for it, I know what I'm talking about and the truth of the situation.

Kneel down and face them on your back
Submit to those in power and become subservient to their every whim and demand.

Closing your eyes, holding inside
You become numb to the world and the hardships around you, holding your pain and suffering inside.

Never react
Don't fight back or stand up for yourself, just accept your fate and keep moving forward.

Breathe in the strength to carry on
Find the inner strength to keep going, even in the face of adversity and hardship.

Your faith is gone
Your hope and belief in a better future have been shattered.

Stepping in line
We continue to follow the same path and direction as everyone else, not daring to step out of line or question authority.

You faceless pawn
We are all replaceable and insignificant, just a pawn in a larger scheme that we cannot see or understand.

Follow me once you stand your ground
If you have the courage to stand up for yourself and show some backbone, then follow me and I will lead you.

You'll never have this thing I've found
You'll never have the same level of understanding or insight that I do, so follow me if you want to learn.

I'll always be inside of the chain mail
I will always be a part of the struggle and fight for a better future, never giving up or backing down.

Your faith is gone!
Your hope and belief in a better future have been shattered, and there is nothing left to cling to.
