The Truth In Chains

You want to put the truth in chains

So the truth is paralyzed

Words made of plastic, hats made of tin foil

And I swim in an ocean of lies


You want to set the truth on fire

It's always a single face I see on my TV

You contort then report

Twist facts into a brand new reality


You want to bury the truth

But the truth screams from below the ground

You can clamp your hands over your ears

But you can't escape the sound

You want to stomp out the truth with your feet

Until its heartbeat disappears

You can try to flatline our emotions

But it won't silence your fears
