LyricMeaning

Puritan
Wait In Vain

Imprisoned by desires, shackled to possessions

What can't be lived without will leave us without

We aspire to the standards set by the elite


Temporary happiness for our permanent toil

Poisoning and burning the fire that has been set and there's no way out


Progress, erect, despoil

Build a better tomorrow and destroy today

Indulge, devour, waste

We'll take and take until there's nothing left

Tomorrow abandoned for the needs of today


As luxuries that promise freedom choke our lives and become our oppressors

We get caught in a cycle where having more is valued over being more

Tell ourselves we are nothing when we have nothing

Take all that we can, knock down all in our way and continue to



Progress, erect, despoil

Build a better tomorrow and destroy today

Indulge, devour, waste

We'll take and take until there's nothing left

Tomorrow abandoned for the needs of today


Man will conquer new lands and take all that he can

Harvesting indigenous lands to give into today demands that he feels are his birthrights

Survival of the fittest Will serve as an anchor that will drag us to the bottom

Signs of a world collapse ignored

We continue to consume

Until we are consumed
