Opiate for the Masses

Opiate for the Masses was a post-hardcore band from Arizona. They formed in Phoenix in 1999 by Ron Underwood, Elias Mallin, Dustin Lyon and Jim Kaufman. The meaning of their name comes from the Karl Marx quote that says the organized religion is an opiate for oppressed countries and cultures. In June 2009, they posted on their MySpace page that they had broken up and gone their separate ways. Ron is currently singing for 9 Electric. more »

Break through the undertow,
Your hands I can't seem to find,
Pollution burns my tongue,
Cough the words I can't speak so I stall myself again, then I fall to the surface,
Fill my lungs with air,
Then let it out

I give it all,
This is the reason that I sing,
So give it all,
Cause it's these reasons that belong to me

Rock bottoms where we live,
And still we dig these trenches,
Bury ourselves in them,
Backs breaking on the tension

For far too long these voices,
Muffled by distances,
It's time to come to our senses,
And from the dark

We give it all,
This is the reason why I sing,
So give it all,
It's these reasons that belong to me

Breathe, the air we give,
The life we live,
Our voices raising distances,
So when my tongue,
Break into song,
You seize a competition,

So please believe your eyes,
Of sacrifice,
Is not what we had in our minds,
I'm coming home tonight, home tonight

We give it all,
This is the reason why I sing,
So give it all,
It's these reasons that belong to me

Today I offer myself up to this I'm living for my dying wish,
I give it all,
Now there's a reason, there's a reason,
To give it all
