Never, never, never

So you can lie and sugar coat the truth

the deaf can’t hear when all is dumb

The blind can’t see what’s right in front of them

The fools who’ll do your will can’t understand

The greater good they serve is filling your false hand

With spoils from wars and golfing trips

To feed your ego driven empty void

Until all they see is your visage

A chasm bigger than any chasm, ever

And standing there you hear faint voices echo

Never, never, never
