Fed Deception Lyrics

Fed Deception lyrics

mouths stained with fear



fed mistrust, fed deception



what hand lifts the spoon



they ask for drink



and you draw from a well of hatred



they ask for nourishment



and are left to starve in a famine of ignorance



blood of your blood



reaching out with tiny hands



a life you created



an angel's breath in a child's eyes



hands raised to what



strike the mouth, or catch the falling



what fist dries the tears



they search for rest



but your mouth is a bed of vipers



they reach for love



and find words that sink like fangs



falling down, falling down



onto your wheel, shaped by your touch



under your fingers, under your fingers



innocence



untouched for you to shape



tread gently upon this



each fingerprint, a world of scars
