Thal - Shroud Lyrics

Drag the lake, into the mud we fall for mercy
Justice is blind until the monolith gets thirsty
We all get exposed as our masks are peeled away
Our conscience slows as the fog invades the bay

Cover my eyes and feel the breath escape my lungs
Behind the shroud I sacrifice myself for the young
Whatever it takes to make this ship steer straight again
A grassy knoll is a perfect place for the final stand

The revolution is hollow
Big money turns likes to follows
Take a knee, but please don't tread on me
Dollar signs you can buy the biggest guns
The loudest voice will give way to the quiet ones
Cut you down to size and leave nothin but your f*ckin' knees

Cover my eyes and feel the breath escape my lungs
Behind the shroud I sacrifice myself for the young
Whatever it takes to make this ship steer straight again
A grassy knoll is a perfect place for the final stand
