Thrones

I've seen these symbols all along
Absorbing them all in
They never told me what they're for
But I think I have a hint
Tracing patterns I've seen so many times
Fall to your knees
Worshiping idols
This has become your faith
You don't realize it

They've built up monarchies
Untouchable, and out of reach
Sitting on thrones,
They've made themselves kings
Subdue the masses
Herd the sheep
We've laid ourselves in bed with thieves

Hiding in plain sight
Yet remaining unseen
But I can see you now
And through the imagery
You cannot hide from me
I've been illuminated
Tracing patterns that I've seen so many times
Fall!
My eyes are now weary
I forge symbols of my own

Untouchable, and out of reach
Sitting on thrones,
They've made themselves kings
Untouchable, and out of reach
Taking their thrones,
We've made ourselves king
Like vultures circling the skies
They pick at your bones and tear your eyes
Hoping to make you blind
So they can feed on your insides.
