As we find ourselves barely conscious, we struggle to our knees Looking for a sign that says this is life, and not a dream There is a sign and it read: "hope is the leash of submission" Moral bondage forges it's cage, once again filling us with guilt and shame Moral bondage tightens it's grip, once again crushing us with fault and blame For how long will we carry these crippling loads? And when will we unlearn the lies, refuse the cost and throw it all to the dogs? Throw it all, throw it all, throw it all, throw it all to the dogs! Signs statements of release Relinquishing all duties Offer a refusal with no regrets Sever the religious romantic ties Throw off the guilt and the faithfulness For how long will we carry these crippling loads? And when will we unlearn the lies, refuse the cost and throw it all to the dogs?
