Complacent You're growing complacent You forgot what it all meant And chose the path of convenience The road you took to where you're standing now Was fraught with obstacles that tore you down They made you drown The path of least resistance called your name A status quo you tried hard to maintain But it wasn't the same Sweet denial, take your leave You must have others to deceive I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still So throw the towel in, if you must Give up hope and give up trust And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still Something changed in you when you gave up When you decided that you had tried enough The price was too much The inconsistencies seemed plain to see A swift departure from reality How blind can you be? Sweet denial, take your leave You must have others to deceive I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still So throw the towel in, if you must Give up hope and give up trust And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still Sung to sleep by sycophantic choirs You preferred the company of liars Who made you feel admired But one by one they turned their backs on you The ranks of your detractors grew and grew When they learned the truth Sweet denial, take your leave You must have others to deceive I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still So throw the towel in, if you must Give up hope and give up trust And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still JMC
I had to order this cd because I couldn't find Assemblage 23 in the Evansville IN area. I ordered Storm because of this song and "You don't deserve it".
Check out Depeche Mode-Useless. Definite Depeche Mode influence with this song. Of course thats nothing new. Cetu Javu, Red Flag, Camouflage, and many others obviously influenced by Depeche Mode.

Complacent
You're growing complacent
You forgot what it all meant
And chose the path of convenience
The road you took to where you're standing now
Was fraught with obstacles that tore you down
They made you drown
The path of least resistance called your name
A status quo you tried hard to maintain
But it wasn't the same
Sweet denial, take your leave
You must have others to deceive
I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still
So throw the towel in, if you must
Give up hope and give up trust
And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still
Something changed in you when you gave up
When you decided that you had tried enough
The price was too much
The inconsistencies seemed plain to see
A swift departure from reality
How blind can you be?
Sweet denial, take your leave
You must have others to deceive
I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still
So throw the towel in, if you must
Give up hope and give up trust
And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still
Sung to sleep by sycophantic choirs
You preferred the company of liars
Who made you feel admired
But one by one they turned their backs on you
The ranks of your detractors grew and grew
When they learned the truth
Sweet denial, take your leave
You must have others to deceive
I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still
So throw the towel in, if you must
Give up hope and give up trust
And I promise you'll drift backwards standing still

Such a good motivational song....
So f@**#!* broken right now. this song makes me feel something other than the hurt thats been bestowed on me. i love these guys. 💕💕
The genre might as well be "Catharsis".
*These guy. It's just Tom Shear from start to finish for his studio albums (he does have a live tour band).
This song is good!
Im sooo addicted to this song. I love it!!!!
these lyrics are forever deeply inscribed within me now
My Bueno amigo Tom Shear... one of the most talented tune and lyric writers period dot.
"Sweet denial take your leave you must have others to deceive, I'm so tired of drifting backwards standing still."

This song is a biblical revelation
I had to order this cd because I couldn't find Assemblage 23 in the Evansville IN area. I ordered Storm because of this song and "You don't deserve it".
The theme song of my life pretty much!!
These lyrics got personally deep
ya en espera que lleguen a Mexico este 4 de diciembre
Assemblage 23/Depeche mode project...fantasy album.
Great track but sounds very similar to a track called "Rush" by Depeche Mode
This song should be played in Congress at least once a day lol

It's like Dave Gahan is there in the studio with him.
