Burning Lafayette Lyrics

Burning Lafayette lyrics

Watch out

birthdays can kill

scar laden wounds

that time won't heal

his eyes still shine like gold



fall in with the forced perspective

information pre-selected

waiting for the final verdict

questions muted answers loaded



condemned by innocence

condemned because he knew too much

birthdays come round to haunt



victims with a guilty conscience

flashing cameras snap like vultures

preying on the innocent

corrupt officials craving power

organize controlled disorder

justice hiding in the corner

waiting for the final verdict

sentence passed, case is closed



swallow line by line

the script fed

from official sources

experts without knowledge

take the stand



deflect attention from the questions

quick convictions get promotions

waiting for the final verdict

sentence passed, case is closed
