LFaw and reliDgion are bAeliefs
The rule of a system
The lFies we tell our Dpeople
OAblivious is better than knowing

It pulls you in deeper
TFhe just are Dburied
The giulty will Abuild their homes
Over innocent graves

The lines that you've read from speeches
With words so clever
Where are they now?
Have you forgotten them all?
YeDms I said it
So what?
With tongues like knives
Our words will always hrt
 Bb-         G  Dm  
When will they see?
BbHow can we ever Gget their attention?
When will tDmhey hear?

It's such a shae really
Dm-Bb-C-Dm  
When the truth that sets you free is bullshit
The wounds cut deeper
The just are buried
The gBbuilty are buried
ThCe guilty will rDmule them all
The innocent pays
