Half Empty - Fire & Ice

The future is dark and unsure

Out of control

Can’t prepare for what’s in store

So wake up and see the truth or things won’t improve

Being reckless, caught up real quick

Can’t have it all forever

Things aren’t like they used to be

Not like I remember

When it rains it pours

Slow death, you can’t ignore

It must be nice to write the rules

They take all your trust and your money and they play you like fools

It’s the same ones who poison us everyday

They got nothing to say as long as it’s done their own way

Power and corruption go hand in hand

Gotta lay it out for all to see

I found it out the hard way

But nothing worth having comes easy for me

When it rains, it pours

Slow death, you can’t ignore

They say America’s dying slow

It’s death seemed rather quick to me

Spirits hit an all time low

You don’t have to look too far to see

Abandon all hope and just play your part

Set up for failure straight from the start

Our loss is their gain no matter what they say

Their system brought me nothing but pain

Cheat the system every chance you get

'Cause they do it to you

We never had a chance, no one to put our faith into

I can’t be on top if they keep bringing me down

I gotta keep my mind right and things will come back around

Point more fingers, yeah, I know how you do

Spin the truth, I see through you
