Complacent Lyrics - Singles - Assemblage 23

Complacent 

You're growing complacent 

You forgot what it all meant 

And chose the path of convenience 

The road you took to where you're standing now 

Was fraught with obstacles that tore you down 

They made you drown 

The path of least resistence called your name 

A status quo you tried hard to maintain 

But it wasn't the same 

Sweet denial, take your leave 

You must have others to decieve 

I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still 

So throw the towel in, if you must 

Give up hope and give up trust 

And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still 

Something changed in you when you gave up 

When you decided that you had tried enough 

The price was too much 

The inconsistencies seemed plain to see 

A swift departure from reality 

How blind can you be? 

Sweet denial, take your leave 

You must have others to decieve 

I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still 

So throw the towel in, if you must 

Give up hope and give up trust 

And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still 

Sung to sleep by sychophantic choirs 

You preferred the company of liars 

Who made you feel admired 

But one by one they turned their backs on you 

The ranks of your detractors grew and grew 

When they learned the truth 

Sweet denial, take your leave 

You must have others to decieve 

I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still 

So throw the towel in, if you must 

Give up hope and give up trust 

And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still
