Beneath the Silence (1989)
A side of you nobody knew seems to have reared its ugly head
A darkened truth you hid so long, veiled in the words we read
All these years the face you showed was a mask that hid away
The monster underneath it all, stuck inside a twisted game
Winds of destruction, shattered lives drew around you at your feet
Your careless actions, a legacy from which you can't soon retreat
You had to know that the day would come when the truth would be revealed
The world will see you for what you are and all the shame you had concealed
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
The time has come to pay the price for the awful wrath you show
To people you had claimed to love at the same time their blood flow
No mercy to show to you when you lack so much yourself
A bleak future awaits you now in depths to which you fell
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
A darkened truth you hid so long, veiled in the words we read
All these years the face you showed was a mask that hid away
The monster underneath it all, stuck inside a twisted game
Winds of destruction, shattered lives drew around you at your feet
Your careless actions, a legacy from which you can't soon retreat
You had to know that the day would come when the truth would be revealed
The world will see you for what you are and all the shame you had concealed
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
The time has come to pay the price for the awful wrath you show
To people you had claimed to love at the same time their blood flow
No mercy to show to you when you lack so much yourself
A bleak future awaits you now in depths to which you fell
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
One life beneath the silence
The steady hum of violence
