Lyrics:
Verse 1:
In the halls of power, the shadows grow long
Marble floors echo with the hum of a wrong
Paper trails lead to a labyrinth of lies
Where the truth gets lost in the corporate disguise
Machines of bureaucracy grind day and night
Grinding hopes to dust in a sterile light
Promising freedom with chains in disguise
Feeding us dreams but selling us lies
Pre-Chorus:
Behind the glass, where the secrets hide
Broken dreams and futures collide
Chorus:
Institutional insanity, where the blind lead the blind
Chasing shadows, leaving reason behind
Bound by the chains of conformity
In a world ruled by institutional insanity
Voices silenced, dissent denied
In the maze of power, the truth is fried
Promising order but breeding despair
Institutional insanity, it’s everywhere
Verse 2:
Puppets on strings dance to the tune
Of power and greed under the corporate moon
Policies written with invisible ink
Promising change but making us sink
Empty promises fill the air
In a system designed not to care
Voices silenced by the roar of the crowd
Lost in the noise, never allowed
Pre-Chorus:
Behind the glass, where the secrets hide
Broken dreams and futures collide
Chorus:
Institutional insanity, where the blind lead the blind
Chasing shadows, leaving reason behind
Bound by the chains of conformity
In a world ruled by institutional insanity
Voices silenced, dissent denied
In the maze of power, the truth is fried
Promising order but breeding despair
Institutional insanity, it’s everywhere
Bridge:
Cogs in the machine, spinning round
In the heart of madness, where sanity's drowned
A cry for freedom in a system so tight
A fight for truth in the dead of night
Verse 3:
The walls are closing, the ceiling descends
A maze of rules with no clear end
The chains of paper, the bars of steel
In the heart of power, where dreams congeal
Eyes wide open but still we’re blind
Searching for justice we’ll never find
Caught in the web of power and deceit
In the halls of madness, we admit defeat
Pre-Chorus:
Behind the glass, where the secrets hide
Broken dreams and futures collide
Chorus:
Institutional insanity, where the blind lead the blind
Chasing shadows, leaving reason behind
Bound by the chains of conformity
In a world ruled by institutional insanity
Voices silenced, dissent denied
In the maze of power, the truth is fried
Promising order but breeding despair
Institutional insanity, it’s everywhere
Final Chorus:
Institutional insanity, where logic is defied
Bound in the chains of a systematic lie
Lost in the labyrinth of authority
Caught in the grip of institutional insanity
Voices crying, yet still unheard
In a world where justice is blurred
Seeking truth in the halls of disdain
Institutional insanity, we break the chain
