Mouth Without A Head - Halcyon Way

10 o’clock, let’s watch the news tonight*

See the world burning itself alive

See the people suffering, a third world mentality

Elect another warlord to come and set them free

You keep on talking but you’re never making sense

Trying to convince me of your high intelligence

But I’ve heard that faith without works is dead

Just a voice without a face, or a mouth without a head

Too many fanatics looking for a Christ

To be the one who makes the sacrifice

But their own blood must be too high cost

So it’s our soldiers lives are lost

You keep on talking but you’re never making sense

Trying to convince me of your high intelligence

But I’ve heard that faith without works is dead

Just a voice without a face, or a mouth without a head

The words you spit scratch the itch of my ears

But it seems to be enough to stave off everybody’s fears

But two weeks later you change what you said

Words without a voice from a mouth without a head

All we see?

scenes that confirm our darkened fears

All they do?

suffocate us through our TV screens

Burn my eyes with their lies and deceit

Take us down to where liars feed…
