you're keeping in step 
in the line 
got your chin held high and you feel just fine 
because you do 
what you're told 
but inside your heart it is black and it's hollow and it's cold 

just how deep do you believe? 
will you bite the hand that feeds? 
will you chew until it bleeds? 
can you get up off your knees? 
are you brave enough to see? 
do you want to change it? 

what if this whole [bad word] #39;s 
a charade 
and behind it all there's a price to be paid 
for the blood 
on which we dine 
justified in the name of the holy and the divine 

just how deep do you believe? 
will you bite the hand that feeds? 
will you chew until it bleeds? 
can you get up off your knees? 
are you brave enough to see? 
do you want to change it? 

so naive 
i keep holding on to what i want to believe 
i can see 
but i keep holding on and on and on and on 

will you bite the hand that feeds you? 
will you stay down on your knees? (8x)
