The Collective Lyrics


Adam Tell The Collective

[Verse 1]
I heard a call beyond the hill, and then it faded
A little bird that flew away
A loose belief in what I've used for motivation
Is falling out of phase
Wear the mask and climb aboard, but keep your mouth shut
'Cause there's no room left at the top
All of us here are well aware of the illusion
But no one wants to stop

[Chorus]
What is it worth?
What does it say?
Passing on designs intended to break
We can fight about who's to blame
But I fear, my friend, that we're dead weight
No writing off this size of expense
There's no diffusing this thick of incense
So here's last call, grab it and go
Soon the collective overthrows

[Verse 2]
Turn around back through the breach in search of safety
Beyond the blighted ground
Shatter the screen, and cut the vine that keeps it breathing
At least we'll slow it down
Conformity will be a tool that's used against us
You'll think you're all alone
But when that comes get on your feet and square your shoulders
You're stronger than you know
[Chorus]
What is it worth?
What does it say?
Passing on designs intended to break
We can fight about who's to blame
But I fear, my friend, that we're dead weight
No writing off this size of expense
There's no diffusing this thick of incense
So here's last call, grab it and go
Soon the collective overthrows

[Bridge]
Take your places, wave the signal
I'll be waitin' 'til it all folds
Braveheart, you little rebel
Pour it all out before the settle

[Outro]
What is it worth?
What does it say?
Passing on designs intended to break
We can fight about who's to blame
But I fear, my friend..

What is it worth?
What does it say?
We've been developing things we know will break
We can fight about it, and pass around the blame
But I fear, my friend, that we're now too late
