Lyrics

You wear a face to hide the truth
The skin is dead, but painted bright
Your smile is twisted and insane
There's malice shining in your eyes
For the world
For yourself

The game went on and on, but it's over now
We played along and left it far too long
There comes a day
When the scales fall away
And the wrath you face will crush you with its weight

You tell your lies to everyone
Swearing they're the only truth
Crying out that you're the victim
Of a game you rigged and made us play
We won't play

The game went on and on, but it's over now
We played along and left it far too long
There comes a day
When the scales fall away
And the wrath you face will crush you with its weight

Keeps us all off balance
Make us walk on eggshells
You think that's power?
It's guilt and insecurity

You just crossed the line
You prowl the world seeking the ruin of souls
This is not a war
That you're prepared to fight

No one ever told you no
It only ends one way

The game went on and on, but it's over now
We played along and left it far too long
There comes a day
When the scales fall away
And the wrath you face will crush you with its weight

The game went on and on
But it's over now
The game went on and on
But it's over now
