Text Message To The So-Called Emperor Lyrics by Project 86

Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
For too long cast aside, stripped of dignity, opportunity
Countless sleepless days in underestimation
But under these anxious, darkening leaves
No word goes unheard and no deed is without compensation
When the workers come to collect their wages

Now the straw men are swaying in the distance
The have-nots calling in the listless wind whispering for retribution
Waiting for some voice to call them, from the bottom where you left them
So onward friends from our battered homes
Forward to the onrush of cast stones, crushed bones and the gallows
For too long cast aside, stripped of dignity, opportunity   Countless sleepless days in underestimation   But under these anxious, darkening leaves   No word goes unheard and no deed is without compensation   When the workers come to collect their wages      Now the straw men are swaying in the distance   The have-nots calling in the listless wind whispering for retribution   Waiting for some voice to call them, from the bottom where you left them   So onward friends from our battered homes   Forward to the onrush of cast stones, crushed bones and the gallows
