Deception
"The very word "secrecy" is repugnant in a free and open society
And we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies
To secret oaths and to secret proceedings
We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment
Of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it
Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society
By imitating its arbitrary restrictions"
There's nothing to possess
There's nothing to obsess
This is stability
This is democracy
It's when you started this way
This isn't your final decay
But it's insane
Exploding buildings and
Falling and burning planes
Polluted oceans and
Soil full of grief
Maybe you'll ask yourself
Where is the line
Between barely existence
And descent life
It's when you make it this way
In this deception you live
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
And you distort this grace
Your soldiers they are brave
They bring democracy
They bring stability
In this deception you live
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
And we are as a people inherently and historically opposed to secret societies
To secret oaths and to secret proceedings
We decided long ago that the dangers of excessive and unwarranted concealment
Of pertinent facts far outweighed the dangers which are cited to justify it
Even today, there is little value in opposing the threat of a closed society
By imitating its arbitrary restrictions"
There's nothing to possess
There's nothing to obsess
This is stability
This is democracy
It's when you started this way
This isn't your final decay
But it's insane
Exploding buildings and
Falling and burning planes
Polluted oceans and
Soil full of grief
Maybe you'll ask yourself
Where is the line
Between barely existence
And descent life
It's when you make it this way
In this deception you live
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
And you distort this grace
Your soldiers they are brave
They bring democracy
They bring stability
In this deception you live
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
This is deception
This misconception
