Time of Confusion
What I see is a stage full of fools
What I hear is a script filled with neglected words
what lies beyond those words is a mystery to me
what is going on isn't going away very soon
Empty words written in the time of confusion
for talk is cheap written on paper
thrown into the blazing fire and
the burning ashes fly away into darkness
and the clouds bleed tears
History has 'god' on its side but the Bible
remains unopened undigested carried like a trophy
and thrown into the bonfire of lies
Gold to the actors with their devilish smiles
Empty pockets emptied souls for spectators
Who is this 'god' of silver and gold
The answer remains unopened and undigested
for the Bible is carried like a trophy
and thrown into the bonfire of lies
