Twisted And Gnarled

You spend your days blaming other people for your mistakes
Those trusting fools give and give and all you do is fucking take
So weave your lies carefully, be weary and do not trip
They’re trailing behind in jagged lines stuck to a piece of shit

Paint yourself as a saint, you’re crystal clear
I can see the lies you bleed, what do I hear?
Another tale, what the hell? Who buys this shit?
You snub the ones, my hand you shunned
The candle’s burning past the wick

Now paint yourself as a saint
While leaving behind a taint
You set yourself on the path
Let me hear another tale
Of woe as you quickly fail
You left me with only wrath

LIES! Stripped of all faith
FRAUD! Leave behind your taint
SO TWISTED AND GNARLED
LIES! Can’t see the truth
FRAUD! Through the lies, forsooth
CORRUPTING THE WORLD

You feel so lost, you don’t know what to do now that you’re down
Expecting me to forget the lies, you take me for a clown
Do I look so dumb to your eyes when you feed me shit?
I can see right through your facade, hollow, broken and forfeit

Crucify unbelieving lies, no profit
Thus you deem what they all see, there’s no prophet
To foretell, what the hell? Belief zero
You turned your back, in point of fact
You have become no one’s hero

Go paint yourself as a saint
While leaving behind a taint
That no one can wash away
Let me hear another tale
Of woe as you quickly fail
And live to lie another day
