Counrtry Of Lies

September 16, 2010

Everything you know is fake
But the truth will drive you insane
I pray the Lord my soul to take

These feverish nightmares I cannot shake
Knowing the truth is to blame
Everything you know is fake

They abide no laws, all rules they break
Anarchy is their aim
I pray the Lord my soul to take

We are free but our liberties they take
They play with our minds like a game
Everything you know is fake

Like the violent pulses of a quake
They destroy the land and make their claim
I pray the Lord my soul to take

The world is asleep! I pray you wake
Free your body, free your brain
Everything you know is fake
I pray the Lord my soul to take
