lyrics

You shall recieve the summons urging you to survive
From now on you're a rumor disentangling lies
'Cause the battle never happened, there was no decisive fight
The charades played out in barricades, brigades parade on high

Keep it inconspicuous
Behind the enemy lines
Don't interrupt the spectacle
Stick to the party line

Throw in a healthy dose of humor just to season the crime
Mimic expectations of visitation to seem contrived
Electrostatic numbing & the sky will come alive
Silhouettes in bright white beams getting sucked into the sky

Keep it inconspicuous...
Inside the enemy mines
Don't deviate the spectacly
Stick to the party line

Justa minding your own business, eminently civilized
Seraphs in their dirigibles'll be sure to steer us right
Pinafores through clouds, sunbeams through their thighs
Anchors used for ballast & bullseyes in their sights

Plundering asunder now
Inside the enemy mind
We gotta syncopate our synergies
& make the thunder cry

'Cause the scheming's unrelentless in this fiendish enterprise
Without us or within us in an assortment of disguieses
Cast the line out for a scapegoat in a weary old refrain
Some other motherfucker'll be the one to catch the blame

Cause we all believe in something
But what believes in you?
Can't tell nobody nothing
when they don't descry the mode
Distracted from distraction by distracted overviews
Distracted from distraction busy radiating news

Well we all believe in something
But who engenders truth?
Don't tell nobody nothing
when they presume to know
Distracted from distraction by the distracted chosen few
distracted from enactment, no lack of prospective clues

We all believe in somewhere
Or are we cherishing a ruse?
Can't set the breaker back
Without changing out the fuse
Approaching the impaction bent on claiming an abuse
Echanted by collecting recognition to use

We all believe in something
But what merits the noose?
We've plaenty things in common 'til we're cut out on the loose
Reproaching the refraction rent retracting an excuse
We all believe in something
But what believes in you?
