lyrics

We live in a world where no one is honest
And "honest" is nothing but fabrication
Double-speak and false smiles fall on us
And on us falls the mark for eradication

Show how you can be so shameless
Through your façade you are far from blameless
I'll tear through your mask and make you see
That your evil exists

I can't believe you've become so faithless
Suffice to say that I've come to hate this
Every time I blink another lie
Crosses your lips

From their lofty thrones they watch as we break
And break we shall, fall to our own selfish pride
Safe from harm, atrocities catch our eyes
But our hands, no our hands cannot reach where they hide

Like a serpent you deceive and receive our vulgarity
With arms wide open
Like a servant to your own greed our lies feed your inflated ego
You've gone off the deep end
