Purpose Lyrics & Video

You got a wishing well within

That's ready to begin

See how we roll x2

I'm trying to compromise

Because with me there are no lies

See hwo we run

It's already begun

Now that I'm back to a pushing pen

That weights two hundred tons

I'd Like to drop it on you

And watch it all fall throught

Nobody knows just what

You're battling inside

You can hide

Nobody knows just why

Most everyone will lie

If they need to

The ones who aggravate you most

And happen to be ever close

Seem to be the ones lurching

For the same things that you are seaching

The ones that make you feel ill

And you think that nature should have killed

Those you curse when you're alone

Seem to be so close to home

Not an even field to be on

Feels like stading still for eons and eons

Stare it dead in the eye, what now?

All we can do is try to shut it down

Shut it Down

Not an even field to be on

Feels like stading still for eons and eons

Stare it dead in the eye, what now?

All we can do is try to shut it down

Shut it Down
