Escondidos

Everybody's looking for a platform
 To vent their version of right
 And everybody's looking for some closure
 To put all the nightmares behind
 So everybody's looking for an audience
 With the bright lights that they bring
 And everybody's looking for an exit
 But nobody sees a goddamned thing but
 Dark eyes behind a bright smile
 Aglow with the lies of kindness
 There's nothing to be afraid of
 Everybody's looking for a savior
 To salve the wounds incurred
 And everybody's looking for clarity
 To make sense of the prophet' words
 Everybody's looking for something
 But only some know what to find
 So everybody's looking for a purpose
 But nobody checks to see behind those
 Dark eyes behind a bright smile
 Aglow with the lies of kindness
 There's nothing to be afraid of
 When they find out you're going to burn at the stake
 Pulling the wool over doubtful eyes
 Won't be as easy as earlier times
 The world has changed, your image is stained
 And no evidence will make the hounds stay away
 You're gonna go down, you're gonna fall down
 You're gonna come tumbling down
 It's over now, superseded no doubt
 Enough of you leading us all astray
 Astray!
