[Verse 1]
C#mOpen up, drink it in, don't ask too many questions
BeCcome the vessel for the shame they feed you through suggestion
There's a C#mrumor on the breeze, secrets that bring you to your knees
We made the Eproblem, we are the poison, Bwhoa
C#mClose your eyes, surrender your beliefs to them for holding
Wait Cpatiently to hear what ever-changing lines are showing
There's a C#mwhisper in the wind, eventual storm that's rolling in
They have the Eanswers, cure for the cancer we've beBcome, that we've become
[Chorus]
All they wanted was C#mviolence
C#mTo plant their seeds and divide us
C#mIf they want the worst that's inside us
C#mWe'll bring on the violence, the violence
C#m C C#m E
[Verse 2]
C#mBack and forth, daily take apart what you've been building
CEverything you have is to be fed into the system
There's a C#mforce out pushing fear, a deafening silence drawing near
Sit, abEsorb it, guess we've been toxic all aBlong, all along
[Chorus]
All they wanted was C#mviolence
C#mTo plant their seeds and divide us
C#mIf they want the worst that's inside us
C#mWe'll bring on the violence, the violence (The violence)
C#mTo plant their seeds and divide us (The violence)
C#mIf they want the worst that's inside us (The violence)
C#mWe'll bring on the violence, the violence
[Bridge]
C#mI'm on the edge, and I'm not alone
C#mRemember this is what you asked for
C#mI'm on the edge, and I'm not alone
C#mRemember this is what you asked for
[Chorus]
C#mAll you wanted was violence
C#mTo plant your seeds and divide us
C#mYou want the worst that's inside us
C#mWe'll bring on the violence, the violence (The violence)
C#mWe'll fall before you divide us (The violence)
C#mIf you want the worst that's inside us (The violence)
C#mBring on the violence, the violence
