another anthem for the disappeared
feeding back this time
i promised you the murder of faith
& the siren blasts to herald
the dawning of another age
with rapt & keening voices
the lie enshrined again
marked by the sins
we're inching up to it
i never said that all was well
you know it scars like hell
oh man it hurts like anything
time to piss another useless lie away
we pray
we pray
i never said that all was well
you know it scars like hell
man it hurts like anything
time to piss another useless lie away
we pray
to the church of the cathode ray.
crucified by the past
crucified by the shame
the sheep go marching on & on
repulsed from the barricades
& the siren blasts to herald
the dawning of a new age
indoctrinates through fear
& i am on my knees again
i never though it would end this well
it scars like hell
it hurts like anything...
