A Certain Tone

The story told
A thousand times
The story sold
A thousand lies
One dog barks
One dog bites
Love is scars
Love is blind

The news is broke
When it's time
The news is smoke
When it's crime
One snake rattles
One snake bites
Faith is brittle
Faith is blind

The rules are broken
In broad daylight
The game is rigged
Before your eyes

Every disciple 
and acolyte
Will impeach the preacher
For the right price

A heart thats broken
Hurts most at night
The eyes of wisdom
Don't shine as bright

A certain tone
Can get the girl
A certain soul
Can get the world
The trick is knowing
How much to sell.
