Deception

Pure as white

But black as night

Such skilled entertainers

For us all

We who sit and stare

Are we at peace or simply scared

Of all that's not being said

Scared of all ending up dead

Like the one we emulate

He the one who changed our fate

Yet they use him as the bait

I know you think it's a made up story

But it's deception at its best

I know you think i should leave it all alone

Not this time

Not anymore

This time something must be done

Have you heard what i said

It's not their blood that's been shed

Have you heard anything i said

I know you think i should leave it all alone

Not this time

Not anymore

This time something must be done

It seems a fallacy to question

But they say they'll take suggestions

What they mean is they'll have a session

Which puts you in their possession

Which leads us back to the insurrection

As we sit and stare

Are we at peace

Or simply scared of all that's not being said

Have you heard what i said

Are we better off dead

Have you heard anything i've said

We're better off

With the saints that went ahead

Your soul

My soul

Reaching forth

We need refuge and recourse

As we kneel and pray to her

Sadness

Repressed

Love returns

Feel the tears run down your face

As you ponder such a waste

Let the tears well in your eyes

Say a prayer for the lies

That they offer

This deception

We must not falter
