A Myth Retired - The Great Deceiver

That’s just how

They want it to be

That’s just how

They’ve worked it out

A system based on egotism

Moral values

That spell power and greed

When the anxiety attacks

Come closer in between

Step out of your denial

Forget your self-esteem

Open your eyes

Open those baby blues

Living in hell

Beats not living at all

They got you

Right where they want you

They didn’t even have

To dig the hole

It all hits me in the eyes

A human wreckage

Speaking in tongues

I hate it here

But where will you run?

Where will you hide?

As long as you don’t reflect

You’re happy where you are

If you would start

To question it

You wouldn’t even

Know where to start

Here comes the handshake

The handshake and the smile

The bigotry, the bigotry

Open your eyes

Open those baby blues

Living in hell

Beats not living at all

They got you

Right where they want you

They didn’t even have

To dig the hole

That’s just how

They want it to be

That’s just how

They’ve worked it out

A system based on egotism

Moral values

That spell power and greed

The hunt for the sacred game

When the anxiety attacks

Come closer in between

Step out of your denial

Forget your self-esteem

It’s all face value

All symbols of stature

Underneath the surface

Wounds that never heal

Open your eyes

Open those baby blues

Living in hell

Beats not living at all

They got you

Right where they want you

They didn’t even have

To dig the hole

The hunt for the sacred game
