body of lies

We’ve turned too many blind eyes

And burned too many young lives

Who yearned for a new lifetime

But learned the truth behind white crime

The greed is chimed over drums of oil

Dollars and death will forever remain loyal

While democracy and decency

Are tossed like yesterdays spoils

Cause the greed overpowers man

The greed doesn’t understand

That the greed that feeds in between hands

Is a greed that leaves us all damned

And it doesn’t have to be this way

And it doesn’t have to end like this

And we’d all have to be insane

To think that this is how the world should exist

So everybody ball your fist

And raise it to the sky

I want you to break down all the walls

That stand there in disguise

And when you’re breaking down these walls

And there standing in surprise

Don’t listen to a goddamn word at all

Because they are all just fucking lies
