lyrics
They make a claim
That there's no on inside
They make a claim
That they just can't justify
So many lies
Pave the way for the injustice
Between the lines
They weave corrosive thread
It's not a matter of what you think
It's a matter in the grey
Conspiracies arise
It's in the grey matter
They take away
all the proof that lies behind
All the crime, all the guilt
Yet they despise
Committing patients to a padded room
(I hear it in my head)
For understanding all of these lies
It's not a matter of what you think
It's a matter in the grey
Conspiracies arise
It's in the grey matter
When will we learn to fight
about our civil rights?
When will we vilify
the arrogant and the sly?
I have no words to say
(or they'll take my life away)
A coffin silhouette
They were both shot in the head
That there's no on inside
They make a claim
That they just can't justify
So many lies
Pave the way for the injustice
Between the lines
They weave corrosive thread
It's not a matter of what you think
It's a matter in the grey
Conspiracies arise
It's in the grey matter
They take away
all the proof that lies behind
All the crime, all the guilt
Yet they despise
Committing patients to a padded room
(I hear it in my head)
For understanding all of these lies
It's not a matter of what you think
It's a matter in the grey
Conspiracies arise
It's in the grey matter
When will we learn to fight
about our civil rights?
When will we vilify
the arrogant and the sly?
I have no words to say
(or they'll take my life away)
A coffin silhouette
They were both shot in the head
