They do they don't

Tied down against the tracks
Screamin´ in silent black and white
You trust us
We are such villains
We will tell ourselves anything we want to hear
If we are willin´
To listen is to learn
And too much is what we deserve
And how come when we say that we do; we don´t
Can pray to anybody you want; we won´t
OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH
But if were the ones to blame then the fruit
It shouldn´t taste so good
We were used
To think we got nothing to lose
We´re losin´ everything but the truth
Cause walkin´ straight into a road block, bendin´
Left, it ended
Your point of view is chosen by the serpent´s rules
With all it´s do´s and don´ts
The future´s an empty promise
I´m concerned and so tired of waitin´
But we could sell it wooden horses full of nightmares
And when they open
This all might be composed
There´s no goin´ back to the good old days
It´s just a favoring and some new light
Archaism is a dusty road leadin´ us back to nowhere
If we´re the ones to blame then the fruit
It shouldn´t taste so good
We were used
To think we got nothing to lose
We´re losin´ everything but the truth
Cause walkin´ straight into a road block, endin´
Left, it bended
Your point of view is chosen by the serpent´s rules
OH OH OH OH
How come when we say we do; we don´t
How come when we say we will; we won´t
How come when we say we do; we don´t
How come when we say we will; we won´t
Screamin´ in silent black and white
You trust us
We are such villains
We will tell ourselves anything we want to hear
If we are willin´
To listen is to learn
And too much is what we deserve
And how come when we say that we do; we don´t
Can pray to anybody you want; we won´t
OH OH OH OH OH OH OH OH
But if were the ones to blame then the fruit
It shouldn´t taste so good
We were used
To think we got nothing to lose
We´re losin´ everything but the truth
Cause walkin´ straight into a road block, bendin´
Left, it ended
Your point of view is chosen by the serpent´s rules
With all it´s do´s and don´ts
The future´s an empty promise
I´m concerned and so tired of waitin´
But we could sell it wooden horses full of nightmares
And when they open
This all might be composed
There´s no goin´ back to the good old days
It´s just a favoring and some new light
Archaism is a dusty road leadin´ us back to nowhere
If we´re the ones to blame then the fruit
It shouldn´t taste so good

To think we got nothing to lose
We´re losin´ everything but the truth
Cause walkin´ straight into a road block, endin´

OH OH OH OH
How come when we say we do; we don´t
How come when we say we will; we won´t
How come when we say we do; we don´t
How come when we say we will; we won´t
