Lyrics
The Liar
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Watch the skies light up lybia tonight
Last whispers come bleeding from lips
They stole your freedom for military might
Prostituted like the whores of the apocolypse
Chorus:
Reagen plays the liar - power's his desire, theres nothing for the world we can do!
Reagen plays the lyre - the flames are burning higher, while the world burns down around you!
They say they're telling us the honest truth,
Then they stab us in the back and lie to our face.
They say they're building a new free world,
But it's just the empire of a new master race.
They say "it's not our policy to kill civilians,
But it's to make the world safe for democracy..."
The fact they're still lying while our children are dying
Only stands as proof of man's insanity.
Chorus
Do you wave the flag, can you support a man
Who'd rather arm the world than give it food.
As the new master twists the nuclear screw,
He laughs as kiev burns on the six o'clock news.
Chorus
They say they're telling us the honest truth,
Then they stab us in the back and lie to our face.
They say they're building a new free world,
But it's just the empire of a new master race.
They say "it's not our policy to kill civilians,
But it's to make the world safe for democracy..."
The fact they're still lying while our children are dying
Only stands as proof of man's insanity.
Reagen plays the liar - power's his desire, theres nothing for the world we can do!
