Lyrics Regress - Polaris

We are the gears in this churning machine
The burning steam from the crack in the surface
We are your soul's insomnia
The restless heart of indignation

Forever awake

You're all insane, staring at inevitable change
The selfish few who will stand in the way
But with each orbit you beg the world to turn at your will (At your will)
To rotate in reverse

You're not a hero if you're trapped behind a mask
Can't hear them screaming when your head is in the sand

We're hopeless
We're helpless
We'll wait here for a sign
Or stare into the sun until we're blind
And out of time

You left each other to drown in a sea of ill concern
In search of a thorned crown you were never meant to earn

You'd set the world ablaze to warm your hands on the flames
How did we let it come to this?
We're all to blame
This isn't progress

This is not
This isn't progress
Misled and sick in the head
Playing the victim again

You're not a hero if you're trapped behind a mask
Can't hear them screaming when your head is in the sand

(What will it take to make you see?)

We're hopeless
We're helpless
We'll wait here for a sign
Or stare into the sun until we're blind
And out of time

We are the gears in this churning machine
The burning steam from the crack in the surface
We are your soul's insomnia
The restless heart of indignation
