AMARNA REIGN lyrics : "Shrines"

You must, you must have it all...
You must have it all figured out...


It's a picture perfect vision of a life,
It's what we've been taught to dream about.



Looking down on us with condescending eyes
They say what you think

They say what you mean.



Claimed a throne,
Adorned a crown
It's not what you want,

It's not what you think,

Take this life you had and throw it away

Like everyone else.



You're just a victim,
Distorted vision
Defined by corruption

You'll just consume yourself.



Empirical lies,
Untested untried
Forsaken are those

Who don't question life
Wandering a such a trap like path,
Allowing yourself to worship this shrine of gold

To worship a shrine of gold.



You'll never find a way to overcome this un-fulfillment,
A golden home that leads to an empty grave
A mislead life you don't try and save

You'll drown yourself in discontentment
You gave away your only choice
Sold your soul, all for this shrine of gold.



You brought this upon yourself

We all have our choice
You let them take yours
You're nothing more than your crutch

Pathetic for knowing
But still giving up.



A mislead life you don't try and save
You'll drown yourself in discontentment

You gave away your only choice
You sold your soul, all for this shrine of gold.



So come a bit closer,
The secrets a lie.

The lie is your life,
So leave it untold
Maybe you'll find the truth and throw it away

Like everyone else.

Thrown away

Forgotten forsaken
Thrown away,
Just like everyone else

Your treading is turning to drowning
Fall beneath, fall beneath me.


Every gasp you take, you'll forever choke
Grab hold to nothing
You can only tread water for so long.
