Lyrics

Fight The Lies

VERSE 1
Pretending….. that you’re just doing the right thing
A little bending…. don’t mean a thing
Take that noise and turn to ten, watch the story write the men
As they act upon the lies that they’ve been told
Maybe….there’s something there to win
Just Maybe….there’s a prize there at the end
A little ambition can move a man, add a lie to make a stand
And the numbers may grow too big to stop

CHORUS
Don’t you know that there’s a whisper in the air
It’s looking for your loved ones and it’s touching everywhere
When it lands, the sky it ruptures and the ground shakes ‘neath our feet
Where to hide, where to hide
The lie may seem so tiny as it crawls out from the deep
The wound it makes, it tears …….and takes the tears that weep
You can’t pretend and turn you head ……….you can’t begin to hide
You gotta fight, fight the lies You gotta fight, fight the lies

VERSE 2
Amending……the acts that came before
Suspending……any truth that might restore
A history of people lost, wiping out a holocaust
Destroying any memory we may have
Defending……distortion and deceit
Intending…..to steal and misconceive
Knowing right from wrong and choosing wrong, completes the censured tale
But maybe not, maybe this time not

CHORUS
Don’t you know that there’s a whisper in the air
It’s looking for your loved ones and it’s touching everywhere
When it lands, the sky it ruptures and the ground shakes ‘neath our feet
Where to hide, where to hide
The lie may seem so tiny as it crawls out from the deep
The wound it makes, it tears …….and takes the tears that weep
You can’t pretend and turn you head ……….you can’t begin to hide
You gotta fight, fight the lies You gotta fight, fight the lies
You gotta fight, fight the lies You gotta fight, fight the lies
You gotta fight the lies
