"Among Us"

AMONG US

Wash my body of the lies
Burn the books that hold the truth
Blind the eyes that see
Cover the mouths of those who speak

We might as well be mute
The world might as well be deaf
Bleed the earth
Steal the life from her hands

Release those that are corrupt
To burden our senses with delusion
Bury our happiness under the feet of fear
Create chaos in our dreams

Pour salt in the wounds of our existence
Steal from the children
Their hopes and dreams
Walk among us
