This World Dreams Of

Try to find the reference
It makes no difference to me
Draw your own conclusions
Add to my confusion if you please
The time for concessions
And midnight confessions is long gone
I'll sit here in the silence
And wait for all the violence to engulf me

I hate to take the easy way out, now people
But options are closing down fast
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of

Vengeance has been tasted
Hatred cultivated
Its an old game
Everyone gets fatter
People choose what matters
There's no shame

I hate to take the easy way out, now people
But options are closing down fast
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of

Simple as a folk tale
Deadly as a stairwell
It surrounds you
Stupid men and bastards
Always bite their masters
They will get you

I hate to take the easy way out, now people
But options are closing down fast
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world dreams of
