[ Through The Pain ]

Heart of Babel

I’ve watched my whole life get wrapped up

Into a fiction of libel

I’ve watch this fairytale, no kidding

Turn straight into a psycho

I’m half amazed, half appalled

And yet still fully on trial

And while some things meet their extinction

I’m just keen on survival

 

You can run me through the fires

Of the flames of your evils

You can scorch away our past

Show your hate is deceitful

You can manipulate the facts

Build a foundation so feeble

And then stand on the facade

As you defraud and turn penal

 

Hiding your shame in the shadows

To the display of illusions

Trying to win at all stakes

By any means or solution

Fully engaged on the warpath

Lead you straight into ruin

Trying hard to mask the facts

While your acts leave them proven

 

I’ll tell you right now

You’ve forgot the face of you Father

For all love has been abandoned

And you do Him no honor

You chose these actions with intent

To which you’re not even bothered

Because you’ve always lived a lie

You’re just a cheat and a robber

 

With your self-seeking glory

Your drama and theatrics

Your pride and your arrogance

As a self-righteous fanatic

Raise all the hell that you want

We both know it’s your habit

You are as fake as they come

Dwelling, a psychosomatic

 

We both know that you’re broken

But that’s just not an excuse

Instead of remaining gracious

You went back to your roots

Rooted in manipulation

And for you it just suits

If that’s the life that you lead

That’s all you’ll ever produce

 

And everything you achieve

Is just tainted and tarnished

You keep toiling in efforts

To seem polished and varnished

Whitewashing a tomb

Decorating in garnish

But I see right to you soul

And it’s shrouded in darkness

 

So go ahead and trample me

Just slander my name

If you want to be vindictive

Feel free to try and take aim

Try to kill me and break me

And bury your shame

Because the truth is, all I ever did

Was love you through the pain
