Morally Flexible Lyrics

A desecrated temple

Littered and besieged

Pillars built on pride

Yield to the creed

How can we force ourselves to change?

We're morally flexible

Eons of progression turned to haze

The curtain's gone down

Forced us to move

Where the misty street casts a chill

I didn't know that the margin of error was so small

That the rivers would run dry and reveal a line in the sand

A border not to be crossed

When the dust finally settles

Can we conjure a new path?

Piece the fragments together

And build a middle ground

Or is that too much to ask?

A desecrated temple

Littered and besieged

Pillars built on pride

Yield to the creed

How can we force ourselves to change?

We're morally flexible

A rift in the surface

Ever growing, ever narrowing our view

How can we force ourselves to change?

We're morally flexible

Access to stability denied

The pedestal of the innocent

Weakened by the belligerent

Conquered by dissidence

When the dust finally settles

Can we conjure a new path?

Piece the fragments together

And build a middle ground

Or is that too much to ask?

Hear the resounding roar

Hear the resounding roar

Of cacophony breaching the threshold

How can we force ourselves?

How can we force ourselves to change?

How can we force ourselves?

A desecrated temple

Littered and besieged

Pillars built on pride

Yield to the creed

How can we force ourselves to change?

We're morally flexible

A rift in the surface

Ever growing, ever narrowing our view

How can we force ourselves to change?

We're morally flexible
