JUSTIFIED LIE
(music: Slabaugh/ lyrics: A. Fry)
I cannot hide behind this window
I cannot force this belief on myself
I cannot be one of your army
I stand alone amongst you
I can't hate this way
I can't sedate what you say
Your stance so tall above
High, mighty, and proud
So proud you that you smash
Your people to the ground
So right
With every last word
A voice so clear
It clots the ears
With a message unheard
carried on the light wings
Chorus
In any way you can
You try to justify this lie
you can't justify this lie
You try to save your life
You try to justify this life
You can't justify this life
My mind so blank
So empty this mortal shell
It burns to think
It burns like the fires of hell
You made me fray
Tore my soul away
With your strange disease
I'm not one with your beliefs
The mind's greed you crave
It never goes away
To pain you are a slave
It never goes away
A denial of life
In your loss of faith
We torture ourselves
For immortal burning grace
Its the way of man
To cleanse and filter the sand
Each time we get a chance
We give in to circumstance
