Cannies of Truth – Phil Headway Lyrics

Why can't I believe, baby

In something fresh, new?

Or simply believe, yeah

In nothing for a few

Why follow millennia

That already are gone?

Are they by any chance here?

Do they live on their own?

Bars disguised as schools

Handcuffs as diplomas

And your failures wide open

In the blurred headlines, mama

Haters will love it

And lovers will hate

But I have to tell you

That you're just a bait

Get ready to see it

The facade will succumb

He really will come back

But this time as a bomb

Say what you mean

If your wallet affords

Your sins are between

Just you and the Lord

They eat the bread

They drink the wine

Abhor the songs

Without a rhyme

How far are you willing to go to face

The cannies of truth

The cannies of truth

They get wool for the winter

Leaving the sheep naked

And afraid of the dark

She waits for her family

Today she decided

To paint herself gray

She went up and down

That was the only way

She lives in the middle ground

Where wondering is allowed

Now she has found out

The truth has no sound

They push you into temples

Scream hymns like bait

And deafen you

With their faith

How far are you willing to go to face

The cannies of truth

The cannies of truth

They eat the bread

They drink the wine

And abhor songs

Without a rhyme

How far are you willing to go to face

The cannies of truth

The cannies of truth

They push you into temples

Scream hymns like bait

And deafen you

With their faith

How far are you willing to go to face

The cannies of truth

The cannies of truth
