Lyrics Once Great Leaders - Argyle Park

Once Great Leaders

'Why didn’t anyone care enough to let you know?
If they did would they have lied anyway?
Never believe;
they’ll only tell you what you think you want to hear — all tall
and pompous and grand, standing on the altars of our feelings, feeding us
rotting meat and sour milk when all we ask for is bread and wine
Liars, all of you!
You’ve led me down the path of destruction, deceiving me, hiding all the real
facts, hurting those close to me
So run, my brothers and sisters, cause it’s all gonna burn, and nothing,
nothing will put out the flames!
And as it burns, I’ll praise God for His wrath and forgiveness, and warm my
frozen blood with the heat, and feed my soul with the burnt flesh,
of our once great leaders!'
