Lyrics A Life Transparent - The Great Deceiver

A Life Transparent

I give up, I give up
Tried to hold it back
But now I’m gone
Staring too long at the screen
Living through moral codes
I get from TV
We do not only
Believe the lie
We live the lie
Feed the lie
We breathe the lie
We are the lie
The chains that hold us down
Have a new design
Implanted at birth
To keep us all in line
I accept, I accept
It’s been a while
Since I remembered a dream
I give in to the pressure
At least
I’m on the winning team
Brought up hating
The scapegoats created
Code red alert
Yeah I am protected
It’s a downward spiral
And we’re gaining speed
Bury me in the flag
When I die on my knees
It’s a downward spiral
And we’re gaining speed
Bury me in the flag
Part of the winning team
A life transparent
A life so thin
As we inherit nothing
Nothing but pain
I give up, I give up
Tried to hold it back
But now I’m gone
Staring too long at the screen
Living through moral codes
I get from TV
Brought up hating
The scapegoats created
Code red alert
Yeah I am protected
A life transparent
A life so thin
As we inherit nothing
Nothing but pain
It’s a downward spiral
And we’re gaining speed
Bury me in the flag
When I die on my knees
It’s a downward spiral
And we’re gaining speed
Bury me in the flag
Part of the winning team
