Fire by the Silos

We've been living out here for two years now
And it’s not how I thought it was gonna be
It's not what I imagined at all

I used to work in the city
My wife had a good job
And my kids went to a good school
And now look at us
Tensity
I know how we got here
But I don't find it very easy to talk about
I am a proud man
Or at least I was

We had it all
We had the latest gadgets
We had the latest [?] in the driveway
Until a day is a year
Everyone has a bit of trouble every now and then
I need a leg up, a bit of help
I never thought it would lead us down this path
To this place
I didn’t read the small print
In order to meet your financial obligations to the state
And be a profitable human
All of your property is to be ceased
In order for you to pay your profitability shortfall

[?] possessed
I've lived here since
That was where my little girl was born
And they just walked in
Started taking things
I mean, who does that?
Where does that come from?
Our neighbours just stood around, watching
No one bat an eyelid
There's always a [?]
I'd known them for years
They fucking took it all

I worked my entire adult life for the ministry
I did everything that I was supposed to do
That treadmill got faster, and faster, and faster
And I couldn't keep up
They walked in and they tore our lives apart

And now we're living out here
Where the farms used to be
And there's no schools, and there's no jobs
And the water is dirty
I just want to wake up from all of this
I want things to start making sense

I ought to know where this ship is sailing to
Because nothing is making any sense
All I can think about is revenge
And standing up for myself
Because I know where they make those decisions
And I know the names, they’re signing a dotted line

I think there’s more people just like me
That are sick of being pushed around, too
So I'm gonna get some revenge
Until things start making sense again
I will take everything that they took from me
And they should be scared
Because I’ll fucking burn them
[?]
And I'll tear them apart in their fucking sleeps
Let me show them just how fucking dark my nightmares have become

I think... I think that I'm waking up
I think that I'm waking up
(I think I’m waking up)
I think that I'm waking up
(I think that I'm waking up)
I think that I'm waking up
(I think that I'm waking up)
I think that I'm waking up
(I think that I'm waking up)
I think that I'm waking up
