Mechanics of Deceit

Cloaks of sickness/ keeping us sweet
 Delusional blackness/ fictional madness
 Visionary blackness/ traps are set
 Revolving mind-doors/ conspiring our downfall
 Which came first? The lies or deceit?
 Why did the suffering cross the divide?
 The dealer sold his soul/ to hide
 And left us on the other side
 The business lessons for which we burn
 Desolate loops in which we turn
 Saga of fools, a voyage of trust
 No contracts bound
 Gathering dust
 Which came first? The secret or the crime?
 Where does the loyalty cross the line?
 The dealer sold his soul to hide
 And left us on the other side
 Tranquilize our denial
 Vengeance is mine
 Capitalize/ on regret
 Kick aside what aspires
 Vengeance is ours
 Our defence won't expire
 Eat the shit with a smile/ don't be frail
 Our word is bound
 Face the wall; fill the mould that we take
 And break with our hands
 Sign the line; it's your life
 Don't be squeamish
 Take the time, taste the sweat
 Choke back your tongue
 Mechanics, mechanics, mechanics of deceit
 Glorified, butchered, bathed in malice
 Sign the line; it's your life
 Don't be squeamish
 Take the time, taste the sweat
 Choke back your tongue
 at the shit with a smile, don't be frail
 Our word is bound
 Face the wall; fill the mould that we take
 And break with our hands
 Mechanics of deceit (x3)
 Tranquilize our denial
 Vengeance is mine
 capitalize on regret
 Kick aside what aspires
 Vengeance is ours
 Our defence won't expire--so beware!
