Ignorance
Far beneath us
Blind deceivers
Waging war with reality
Vision
Bleeding truth
Obscure view
Complacency will make a fact a lie
Disseminating fallacies
Inventing their own tragedies
A case against humanity
Growing larger with each louder voice
Byproducts of a panicking
Fear induced society
Exacerbated as we accept truth as a choice
Rewriting all of history
Endangering reality
Dissimulating demagogues peddling insanity
Production of a never-ending
Smokestack of a fabricating
Scream against which there is no logical recourse
Traitors
Anointed in hate
They bleed for truth that doesn't exist
With a grim silence we turn away
And leave this world to its tragedy
Reverence
Of deception
A vile collection
Intelligence drowned out by fear
Risen
To the surface
A violent purpose
Distorting all that once was clear
Promulgating fantasy
Disguised as bitter honesty
A masquerade of anarchy
Eradicating reasons' voice
Though senseless their denying
Intellectualism is dying
Buried under a monolith of ignorant force
What once was decided
Now chided and derided
Antipathy towards an ignominious ideal
Consequences coinciding
With our disgust and denial
It doesn't matter what they say we'll always know what's real
Traitors
Anointed in hate
They bleed for truth that doesn't exist
With a grim silence we turn away
And leave this world to its tragedy

I'm a big fan of The Faceless middle two albums and when I saw Lyle Cooper was on this album I knew I needed to check it out. I bought the discography almost instantly, reminds me a little of The Faceless and a bit more of Fallujah who I also adore. Well worth the money, Support these great Musicians! dragonslayer8228
