Assemblage 23 - Complacent Lyrics
ComplacentYou're growing complacentYou forgot what it all meantAnd chose the path of convenienceThe road you took to where you're standing nowWas fraught with obstacles that tore you downThey made you drownThe path of least resistence called your nameA status quo you tried hard to maintainBut it wasn't the sameSweet denial, take your leaveYou must have others to decieveI'm so tired of drifting backwards standing stillSo throw the towel in, if you mustGive up hope and give up trustAnd I promise you'll drift backwards standing stillSomething changed in you when you gave upWhen you decided that you had tried enoughThe price was too muchThe inconsistencies seemed plain to seeA swift departure from realityHow blind can you be?Sweet denial, take your leaveYou must have others to decieveI'm so tired of drifting backwards standing stillSo throw the towel in, if you mustGive up hope and give up trustAnd I promise you'll drift backwards standing stillSung to sleep by sychophantic choirsYou preferred the company of liarsWho made you feel admiredBut one by one they turned their backs on youThe ranks of your detractors grew and grewWhen they learned the truthSweet denial, take your leaveYou must have others to decieveI'm so tired of drifting backwards standing stillSo throw the towel in, if you mustGive up hope and give up trustAnd I promise you'll drift backwards standing still
