Earth Caller – Behind The Veil lyrics

[Verse 1]
I fear not my heart's final beat
For I die free, at no ones feet
I could give a fuck about your beliefs
I ain't gotta take a leap, I put my faith in me
So I know in my heart I lived well
You say I'm condemned I say time will tell
You prey on the meek, they pray for your help
The preacher keeps shouting you'll all burn in hell

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The leaders are keeping their plan to themselves
The bankers are thieving, supplementing wealth
The dictators operate behind a veil
Now we're all so blind, we can't save ourselves
The police don't protect they just intimidate
The ruling class as a whole seek to degrade
They take everything that we pointlessly saved

[Chorus]
And here I'll stand
Alone inside this empty fucking void
And I
I still can't believe it
I still can't believe it
Can't you see what is happening
Before your very eyes?
They've told the lie so long
It walks among us. It's alive
It breathes our air
Consumes our minds
What once wasn't there
Now dictates our lives
(RAH)

[Verse 2]
Born into debt
And educated
Enough to keep the machine oiled and fed
But never enough
To ever question
This fascist and sick subjugation
(BREAK)
And so the saying goes
We keep our hopes up high and our heads down low
I know it's sad but true
They took the rules that protect you and used them against you
They took the rules that protect you and used them against you

And still

[PreChorus 2]
The leaders are keeping their plan to themselves
The bankers are thieving, supplementing wealth
The dictators operate behind a veil
But open your eyes and see for yourself
If you disconnect disrupt the sequence
Open your mind, face your demons
You'll see yourself is all you need to believe in
Scream it like you mean it

[Chorus]
So here I stand
Alone inside this empty fucking void
And I
I still can't believe it
I still can't believe it
Can't you see what is happening
Before your very eyes?
They've told the lie so long
It walks among us. It's alive
It breathes our air
Consumes our minds
What once wasn't there
Now dictates our lives
