Itchin' and Achin' (Dead-Eyed Society)

The glorious burden surrounds you with light
Tremendous achievements
All are believed to be right

Gone the shame
Redeemed for pain
But instantly eased, straight and sheer
Successful man
The masterplan
The valleys of gold to appear

Itchin' and achin'
All cast away into black
Itchin' and achin'
Not to return, to come back

Relentless decisions thrown into the fold
Diffusing behaviour, fierce and emotionally cold

No-one's defence
This white substance
Brought to us through air and sea
No more plan
Self-destructive man
Left to die remorsefully

Itching and aching
All cast away into black
Scratching and crawling
Not to return, to come back

Itchin' and achin'
What's cruel defined holds the key
Climbing the ladder
Upper-class society

Some will say it all depends on circumstance
Or so they claim
As long as we believe these lies
Our stronghold casts away, the shame

Itchin' and achin'
From sheep to wolf reconceived

Scratching and crawling
Legacy's born, loath retrieved
Itchin' and achin'
What's cruel defined holds the key
Climbing the ladder
Dead-eyed society
