Dereliction

Greed in your eyes
Naked lust I see for power
(It sparkles bright)
I know you recognize
The old demons you bring back to life

Pathetic how you think
That you can control this game
(It's such a riot)
So you light the flame
With your lies and watch the tempers flare

Search your heart
Search your heart
What is it that you love the most
Love the most

And it sears my soul like fire
How you try to make truth itself a liar
The lies you spin they know no reason
Call open season on decency
(Oh, no)

Professionals in hate
"To fox" means to deceive
And all news are fake
Unless they only sing your praise

You claim that you thought
All these words of hate are bluster
(It's just a game)
Elections, they are fraud
Unless it's you who takes the prize

The power you denounce
Your commitment to the people
(The constitution)
Integrity of votes
Means just suppression to you now
(Back to Jim Crow)

Search your heart
Search your heart
What is it that you love the most
Love the most

And it sears my soul like fire
How you try to make truth itself a liar
The lies you spin they know no reason
Call open season on decency
(Oh, no)

And it sears my soul like fire
How you try to make truth itself a liar
The lies you spin they know no reason
Call open season on decency
(Oh, no)
