Smile Empty Soul

The sky's on fire, the fear is real tonight
We choke on smoke, they dine by candlelight
You've been left behind... though thoughts escape
On sold pipedreams whitewashed in lies and hate
...we gotta take it back... they won't give it up

Smile, empty souls, for me
They say "i'm here for you"
Smile wide to hide the lies behind your eyes
And damn the truth

A gold plate con with nothing new to sell
He bait-and-switched his own way out of hell
But it lifts you up... this thin-skinned act
You paid the freight on what you can't give back

...the new normal now... he won't give it up

Smile, empty soul, for me
And say "i'm doing this for you"
Smile wide to hide the lies behind your eyes
Now what you gonna do?
(That's right, we're here for you...)

People taking to the streets
When freedom is the only thing to lose
Damn the truth
Blood runs knee deep in the streets
With freedom ceased there's nothing else to choose
Damn the truth
