It's been around for a thousand years

And it'll be here for plenty more

It is the face hidden in disgrace

That has become now an open sore



It is a false messiah

It is the face of pain

The bringer of the bittersweet

The heretic insane



Take my scars

Through hands of God

I found a better way

To break the walls



Fed all the lies and desensitized

Taught to believe that it is the way

Taught to divide and exactly why

You'll never understand my rage



You've never had to borrow

You've never had to steal

You eat it with your silver spoon

For me it's real



Take my scars

Through hands of God

I found a better way

To break the walls



Blood and concrete

Piss and wine

Whores that fuck

To feel divine



They'll clean their needles

In their shrine

In ignorance

It's bliss you find



Why can't you

fuckin' open

Open up your eyes
