Slander

The day I found the body I knew what had come.
Walked around the entrails, fear dissolved the bond.
I saw the way it scared them to go against the tide and when currency's a factor they fell in line.
All this time I was thinking all the things that I would say.
If it played out would I hang myself or drown?
When it played out I would run right to it.
Now my eyes are open
You can say what you want, but it'd be wrong still.
You all cover your tracks while you still run.
Better never ever watch me fold for you.
Better never ever not be sold untrue.
I counted on my brother to tell me what to see.
Was I not the person I thought to be? Tell me.
Little congregations meet behind my back, clinging to opinion as if it's fact.
We reflect one another in a way, locking on to what we want.
But I won't stab anybody in the back and I won't have what I don't trust.
You can say what you want but it'd be wrong still.
You all cover your tracks while you still run.
You may go where you like but you'll end up here.
Watched you cover your tracks while you still run.
Better never ever watch me fold
Slander.
When I can't speak for myself no one else should.
You can say what you want but it'd be wrong still.
You all cover your tracks while you still run.
You may go where you like but you'll end up here.
Saw you cover your tracks while you still run.
Better never ever watch me fold for you.
Better never ever not be sold untrue.
Slander.
