Pull the wool over your eyes

acts are misunderstood

lies, your intentions won't hide

no matter much how good



Hold back the flood

hold back the crash with the lash of deceit

no one could guess

they save up your mistakes

so they run you down on your knees



What do you want to hear

two, you're still feeling pride

cover your acts up in fear

down the truth save your hide



Hold back the flood

hold back the crash with the lash of deceit

no one could guess

they save up your mistakes

so they run you down on your knees



Defenses broken down

as dreams have realized

an albatross -tross to drag you down to size



Hold back the flood

hold back the crash with the lash of deceit

no one could guess

they save up your mistakes

so they run you down on your knees

run you down on you knees
