August Burns Red - Treatment Lyrics

Stop turning life into a stagnant routine
Maybe it's better to bit your tongue

The more animosity you spit out, the less we want to hear
Maybe it's best you bite your tongue
Too many hearts filled with hate
Too many hands clenched in fists

Relax your grip
Open the gates
Open the gates
Too many hearts filled with hate
Let acceptance in

We're here to say we're all so sick of your bigotry
We're here to say we're all so sick of your bigotry
Pay attention to the choices you make
Step back and look at all the hearts that you break
Stop dwelling on what happens when we die
Start helping others while we're still alive
Stop dwelling on what happens when we die
Start helping others while we're still alive
You need to look in the mirror and ask yourself
My God what have I done? What are my true intentions?

It's your right to say what's on your mind,
Yet it's their right to keep feeling alive
(Feeling alive)

We'll carve out your heart, rewire your mind
Stripping your soul of everything that makes you unique
We'll carve out your heart, rewire your mind
Stripping your soul of everything that makes you unique

We'll wipe the slate clean that brought them to their knees
Will that make you believe in the tolerance you need?
You crown your religion instead of your king

It's time for a movement to stand up and believe
that being distinct is not a disease

Open the gates
Let acceptance in
Open the gates
Relax your grip of disapproval
