Judge me for what I am
The passage of death
You don't play, you don't win
You change nothing
You gain nothing
Everybody's out from here on in
Heed my words hear me calling
Citizens watch
They're stealing our freedom
Promises left to die
And long forgotten
The government's lost
Tantamount to treason
Tedious the way we fall in
Avenging the cause
A rebel with reason
Fallen lines
Yet war keeps calling more home
I've been forsaken
For I am a patriot
Judge me for what I am
The passage of death
You don't play, you don't win
You change nothing
You gain nothing
Everybody's out from here on in
Need my trust
To tie the blindfold
Bled for my nation saluted the flag
Seeds of hate
Beneath numbered tombstones
Crowding more
Pledge my allegiance in ruins and rags
Heed my words hear me calling
Bled for my nation saluted the flag
Promises left to die
And long forgotten
Pledge my allegiance in ruins and rags
Out of my mind so easily
I've left behind so many dreams
Judge me for what I am
The passage of death
You don't play, you don't win
You change nothing
You gain nothing
Everybody's out from here on in
Heed my words hear me calling
Citizens watch
They're stealing our freedom
Promises left to die
And long forgotten
The government's lost
Tantamount to treason
Tedious the way we fall in
Avenging the cause
A rebel with reason
Fallen lines
As war keeps calling more home
I've been forsaken
For I am a patriot
Out of my mind so easily
I've left behind so many dreams
Spiritual blindness poisons me
Not living on living on my knees
Out of my mind so easily
I've left behind so many dreams
Spiritual blindness poisons me
Not living on or dying on my knees
