Song Description

betrayal, greed, gluttony for self gain and all at the expense of others

Lyrics

the thought police come by today and took away someone you knew
you balled your fist and you stood down and watched them walk away from you
and all this time you swore that you would get his back until the end
today you know that it's not so and watched them take away your friend

so there's no denying today your world is dieing
you've covered your tracks and you've hidden your face
in safety you lived with your secret disgrace
a breach in an unspoken law has occurred
to hide in this moment you've broken your word

amen I say to hungry mouths ... you steal to thrive .... you must survive
but where on earth has it been said that
you must steal to feed your head?
you said you feel the hungry child whose stomach growls with hungar pains
you look down on the scraps you left and start to feed your face again

and so your world is dieing and you hear angels crying
you've covered your tracks and you've hidden your face
in safety you lived with your secret disgrace
a breach in an unspoken law has occurred
to hide in this moment you've broken your word

and so there's no denying, you've given up on tryingyou've covered your tracks and you've hidden your face
in safety you lived with your secret disgrace
a breach in an unspoken law has occurred
to hide in this moment you've broken your word

you've covered your tracks and you've hidden your face
in safety you lived with your secret disgrace
a breach in an unspoken law has occurred
to hide in this moment you've broken your word
