The Price of Agony Lyrics

[Bridge]
A world divided
In a race that no one can win
The worst fears ignited
All the hate that's burning within


[Verse 1]
Taught to hate anyone that dare stand in our way
Taught to fight the system that keeps this evil alive and feeds their greed

[Pre-Chorus]
Are we better?
Old machines have told us who to be
Are we better?
Your hollow voice won't speak for me

[Chorus]
Every day we're growing colder
Our divide is growing further and further
The hands of time are moving faster
When will we stop paying
The price of agony?


[Verse 2]
There's a heart that beats for hope
There's a voice that fights for reason
Look around and see
It's closer than you think
[Pre-Chorus]
Are we better?
Old machines won't tell us who to be
Are we better?
No one's voice will speak for me

[Chorus]
Every day we're growing colder
Our divide is growing further and further
The hands of time are moving faster
When will we stop paying
The price of agony?

[Bridge]
A world divided
In a race that no one can win
The worst fears ignited
All the hate that's burning within
Burning within

[Breakdown]
Destroy the madness
Destroy the madness
No one's voice will speak for me

[Chorus]
Every day we're growing colder
Our divide is growing further and further
The hands of time are moving faster
When will we stop paying
The price of agony?

What did Fit for a King say about "The Price of Agony"?
Genius Answer

The song is about the political divide not just in America, but around the world, and how this divide has caused us to not just disagree with others, but to despise people with differing views, even though outside of politics, we all have more in common than we allow ourselves to believe.
