Lyrics
[Verse 1]
An iron fist in a velvet glove
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame?
Look at what you've become
You are the reason we are bitter and then some
[Verse 2]
Bitter and then some
[Verse 3]
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
[Verse 4]
You sold us all down the river
I hope you choke on the vows that you failed to deliver
You said you'd change the world
But death still flies east
The blind lead the blind, so we bomb for peace
[Verse 5]
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen this all before
[Verse 6]
We've given the vampires
The keys to the blood bank
[Verse 7]
They say the more things change
The more they stay the same
Whilst the liars leech
The crooked preach
So lie through your teeth
Lie like you mean it
It beggars belief, do you really think
That we still fucking believe it?
You fucking parasite
[Verse 8]
There's no room in here for an honest man
(Only callous and cold hearts)
[Verse 9]
Gravedigger, there's blood on your hands
You built this empire on salt and sand
Not all is fair in love and war
History repeats, we've seen it all before
[Verse 10]
Oppressor
You built this empire on salt and sand
Oppressor
You built this empire on salt and sand
[Verse 11]
An iron fist in a velvet glove
Another vulture posing as a dove
Do you have no shame?
Look at what you've become
You are the reason we are bitter and then some
Bitter and then some
[Verse 12]
They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow
But we're still holding on for dear life
