So They’d Like Us To Believe
Black is white, down is up
so they’d like us to believe
in the name of God, war is peace
we’re headed toward the light
Pain is premium, felt and inflicted
and vengeance is justified
so close your hearts and minds
to the screams you hear at night
Lies are true , love is weak
wickedness will tame the lions
invisible are the crying
wise the short-sighted
We’re deaf to their lies
so they’d like us to believe
hiding in their darkness
will clear our searching minds
