False Says Ways


The false says in Big Power Dome run a constant puppet show

The windows on their cardboard stage are draped in black

They don't really know what it is but know they want you to know

Nothing much just as long as there's a door in the back


Alley filled with old worn out plaques and signs

Symbols and faces gravestones and flags

Something replaces the faces with lines

Writing your wills while holding their bags


Full of demons and dust and the bones of promises made

There is no one to trust exchanging sunlight for some shade

Is thrown an all encompassing web or lethal steel net

Like a coarse noose tightening inside until you forget

The ways of such false says
