Keep the Silence - Immolation

Drifting through life

The docile and faceless

Our surface so pure

Yet beneath it all slithers corruption

A peril so certain

This chasm grows wider and wider

Avoiding frail edges

Safely idle, holding your tongues

The illusion binds us all

Rooted deep beyond control

Never seek the truth or suffer condemnation

With eyes upon us now

We believe our voice will bring us down

A plague of lies burns wild

And we let the poison rivers flow

Faith in what was has left us with nothing

Submissive by nature, they have us now

Embracing our silence, we’re gagged into ruin

How dare we watch it and not say a word

If we look away from the danger

It will only get stronger

We hide from the truth

Numbing ourselves to death
