lyrics

FACE VALUE

Everyone living on the edge of illusion

Just beyond the reach of something imagined
Waiting for the moment that never comes
Never comes along

Chorus:
Don’t believe everything you hear
Fortunes made from selling fear
In the end the choice is yours
To read between the lines or take it at face value

The shepherds herd their flock and help them find their way
The superstitions feeding the masses

The wolves in sheepskin always closing in

Without repent again

Chorus:

SYSTEMATIC PARALYSIS

Wait around in a haze
Dumbing down is the safest play
You were taught to believe what was fed to you

Carving out your own version of the truth
Egotistical selfish maniac
It’s a luxury never give it back

Chorus:

Down down all the way, it’s nothing new (Systematic Paralysis)
Who’s right to say, it’s just a point of view (Systematic Paralysis)

Trained to doubt what is real
Live without knowing how to feel
You were taught to believe without questioning

Wear the crown, another fool who thinks he’s king
Buried still alive dead before you live
Watch it disappear from the outside in

Chorus:

The system sells to you
