Where can we go without them following our footsteps?
(It's a crime, you know, an unwelcome shadow)
And how can we hide when we have no privacy left?
(Every move that we make, is another survey)
They've taken it all away

Tell me what's left to save when we're only dust among a den of liars
Tell me who's left to trust, when we're always dust among a den of liars

What's the price for making up our own minds?
(We're imprinted with doubt, a consequence for speaking out)
And who's to blame if we sit back and take a beating?
(Well, we cast ourselves again, to play the victim)
They've taken us all away

Tell me what's left to save when we're only dust among a den of liars
Tell me who's left to trust, when we're always dust among a den of liars

We were barely teething
We were just a rung upon their ladder
And as our youth was fleeting, we were sent off into battle
We became just like pawns and yet we still weaved our way to the queen
Because when they spoon-fed us only lies
We weren't listening

Tell me what's left to save when we're only dust among a den of liars
Tell me who's left to trust, when we're always dust among a den of liars
