lyrics

The Ugly Inside

To have faith there needs to be a villain
There is no blinding light without the darkest night
Could anyone really be coerced, if the spirit wasn’t willing?
It’s not between us, but within us that lies the desperate fight

Sleeping dogs lying through their teeth
Barking out orders, licking wounds at their feet
Stripping back layers to what lies beneath
We try to hide our eyes from the ugly inside

Angry words cross the chasm, the miles between us
Sometime feeling and thinking are but one and the same
The pages of our history have been crumpled to dust
After all we need somebody else to blame

Let sleeping dogs lie, put on a good face
Simmers come to a boil in the vacuous space
That grows and divides at a frightening pace
Our eyes open wide, to the ugly inside

Words carefully considered, every point you contest
Assumptions will be made, the mules will stand their ground
All meaning misconstrued, taken out of context
The shouts are deafening, though no one makes a sound

Sleeping dogs lying through their teeth
Barking out orders, licking wounds at their feet
Stripping back layers to what lies beneath
We try to hide our eyes from the ugly inside
