918 by What We Do In Secret Lyrics

Dark eyes disguised behind
Shaded glass
Loving words and fanfare
Your blank stare shows through
You’ll need a darker shade to hide the menace inside
“Father”, you won’t fool me now
Your words hold substance
But your actions, they don’t hold the burden
Of the world you would create
I see the deceit in your dead stare

We tried to disappear
But vision blurred and darkness neared
We’re never coming home
We tried to start again
You may think you’ve won, but we’re all going to pay

So step across on your own time
I know why you hide your eyes
When you speak, when you lie, while they die
We tried to disappear
But vision blurred and darkness neared
We’re never coming home
We tried to start again
You may think you’ve won, but we’re all going to pay

So cover my head
Blanket the dead
The fire and the field will tell of our end
Our hope is rent as the flesh falls in
When the lead cut through, you finally answered for this

But in the end, we drank in our own death
When we followed the voices of fallen men

I know why you hide your eyes
When you speak, when you lie, while they die
