Promises

For years, no reasons to fear,
No one failed these times
A golden era

Why? If only few die
If only few cry
For the bad times have gone?

Lies, festering lies
Still disguised
Hidden beneath the surface

Wail, hear them wail
For now they fail
To keep their empty promises

Still nothing really wrong
Still seems strong
Will it be enough?

People getting bored
Want to see blood
(They've) seen their faces too many times

Food for lies
Hear them cry
Screaming for their downfall

Wail, hear them wail
For now they fail
So easy to break your promises

Lies, filthy lies, it gets them high
They dare go all the way
Wail, hear them wail
For now they fail
To keep their promises
