Throw It Away

(album: American Fall - 2017)

You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion
And praying on devotion
It's just a game

There's something in the water
Sold your sons and sold your daughters
The voices getting stronger
It's just a game

You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game

The cracks in the foundation
And the fall of your nation
Nero's song an apparition
It's just a game

You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game

When your bloodline is a product
And your privilege is a construct
You've been handed everything
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away
In their failure we are made strong
Rebuilding what has been undone
You've been handed everything
Just to throw it away, just to throw it away

You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion

You've been handed everything just to throw it away
You've been passing off the blame just to spit in our face
A portrait of a version of the worst of our days
You've been handed everything just to throw it away
It's just a game
It's just a game
It's just a game
It's just a game

You're going through the motions
Destroying our emotion
