Changing Face Lyrics

Mirrors of apathy born
Pause within empathy seas
Safe for a pawn, reflections of. . .

. . . Fools!
A new reach of purpose fades
Neither witness bore thus far
Shaming a distaste in your face you're a slave
Teeth pulled apart by the seams

Did you fall upon your face
When you spoke three words
Of purity, fading its shell
And it's humanly face is shown

Another person adorns
Just shy of perfection
An emotionless face at the end of a string to perform
These ironies fall asleep
As you hear virus shores
Another image is formed
The myriad whisper your shame and you fall to your knees
This changing face laughs at you!

A knife in my back
I'll forgive you!
As you avert your eyes, you obscure disguise
I'll just kill you
Clearly see apathy, openly, stabbing me
I'll forgive you!
Constantly, clawing me, silently tainting me!
I'll forgive you (I'll just kill you!)
How many dreams will I have to kill
Before I become an innocent man?
How many lies will I have to drink
Before I begin to understand?

Forward the tragedy
They laugh aloud
Under their mask they feed
Breathing their scars

Shame, remains, politics oblivious and dry
As fasting thins the silver line

Another person adorns
Just shy of perfection
An emotionless face at the end of a string to perform
These ironies fall asleep
As you hear virus shores
Another image is formed
The myriad whisper your shame and you fall to your knees
This changing face laughs at you!

On your way, ponder, nothing at all is what it seems
Begging stiffs, applause for the action that gains no merit
Stale-ish shits, applauding again for the often pathetic

Slaves
Still afraid -
Still trading pieces, against improvement
A pawn that finds itself face on the ground
(Lame) Hate yourself, and play the victim
Batter up, don't make a sound -

And aim for the head
