Down here on planet zero
They swing that gavel hard
No words, no peace, no advocate
No signs of life so far
Better pray for the soul of the citizen
Better pray that you're not erased
On your knees, for the life you're livin'
On your knees or you'll be replaced
Replaced
Out here on planet zero
We live like no tomorrow
I think we've reached the ceiling
They're canceling your feelings
On to better days or so they say
But I don't think so
They're murdering our heroes
Out here on planet zero
Look at me, I'm not lookin' for a favor
I'm just lookin' for an axe to grind
All hail power to the people
Except you, you check the box we don't like
Don't like
So bite your tongue 'cause it might save your life
Out here on planet zero
We live like no tomorrow
I think we've reached the ceiling
They're canceling your feelings
On to better days or so they say
But I don't think so
They're murdering our heroes
Out here on planet zero
Ten, nine
Eight, seven
Six, five
Four, three, two, one
Shut the door, say a prayer, kill the lights
Bite your tongue 'cause it might save your life
Shut the door, say a prayer, hold your breath
No one's comin', you're the only one left
Down here on planet zero
There might be no tomorrow
I think we've reached the ceiling
They're canceling your feelings
On to better days or so they say
But I don't think so
They murdered all your heroes
Down here on planet zero
Zero
(Zero) Shut the door, say a prayer, kill the lights
Bite your tongue 'cause it might save your life
(Zero) Shut the door, say a prayer, hold your breath
No one's comin', you're the only one left
They swing that gavel hard
No words, no peace, no advocate
No signs of life so far
Better pray for the soul of the citizen
Better pray that you're not erased
On your knees, for the life you're livin'
On your knees or you'll be replaced

Speaking about this song\'s meaning frontman Brent Smith explained, "We\'re opening up the conversation into different subject matters that Shinedown has never addressed. We have the full support of our label, our management and hopefully our fanbase, whether they\'ve been there from day one or they\'re just kind of finding out who we are." "If we shut each other down and allow ourselves to be divided by the information we consume and the way we talk to each other, we lose our humanity. When you look outside of your phone, you\'ll see there are so many people doing good things and trying to take care of each other. But we\'re starting to see parts of society slip into an unknown," Brent Smith said of this song in an album press release.
