Surely there must be some honor
Amongst the thieves
Well we can't all be mercenaries
At least that's what I'd like to believe
In a desperate world I struggle
To make my way through the crowd
At a time when I need to be heard more than ever
Everything else is just too LOUD
As we wander through the corridors
Searching for the truth
We wind up in the dungeon
Of disaffected youth
We're searching for a reason
But the order proves too tall
In a world where we have all of the answers
It turns out we know nothing at all
Would you sell your soul
For a piece of gold?
Will you break my heart
After yours turns cold?
Will you plunge the dagger
Deep into my soul?
Like a modern day MacBeth
Would reprise his role
When I beg for truth
Will you tell a lie?
And then flash that evil grin
Right before I die
Will you paint a picture
With my blood and rust?
And leave me a victim
Of MURDER UNDER TRUST.
