Testo Belly Of The Beast
Testo Belly Of The Beast
Here again I find myself in the belly of the beast
Trying to make sense of all this ruin and decline
There's no seat at the table for the beggars at the feast
or anybody unprepared to toe the line
The dogs of war devour doves and beggars at the feet
Of hawks and greedy leaders that clap along and bare their
teeth An insipid and compliant press in lockstep on the beat
Splashing three word slogans neither them or us believe
Oh please forgive that step into the dark
The road will lead us nowhere this path will see us lost
Oh I guess everybody's got a rubicon to cross
The future's suffocating on an echo from the past
It's all the same to me if you're red, green, white, black
or blue
If it's your hands that hold the reins your only mandate it
the truth
A guardian of futures for the ragged and the bruised
A mouthpiece for the voiceless not a vassal of the few
The saying goes that people get the leaders they deserve Take a look at our leaders I guess that makes us all absurd
Oh please forgive that step into the dark
The road will lead us nowhere this path will see us lost
Oh, I guess everybody's got a rubicon to cross
The future's suffocating on an echo from the past
The saying goes that people get the leaders they deserve
Here we are in the belly of the beast
Trying to make sense of all this ruin and decline
There's no seat at the table for the beggars at the feast
or anybody unprepared to toe the line
The dogs of war devour doves and beggars at the feet
Of hawks and greedy leaders that clap along and bare their
teeth An insipid and compliant press in lockstep on the beat
Splashing three word slogans neither them or us believe
Oh please forgive that step into the dark
The road will lead us nowhere this path will see us lost
Oh I guess everybody's got a rubicon to cross
The future's suffocating on an echo from the past
It's all the same to me if you're red, green, white, black
or blue
If it's your hands that hold the reins your only mandate it
the truth
A guardian of futures for the ragged and the bruised
A mouthpiece for the voiceless not a vassal of the few
The saying goes that people get the leaders they deserve Take a look at our leaders I guess that makes us all absurd
Oh please forgive that step into the dark
The road will lead us nowhere this path will see us lost
Oh, I guess everybody's got a rubicon to cross
The future's suffocating on an echo from the past
The saying goes that people get the leaders they deserve
Here we are in the belly of the beast
