The Great Unwashed

(album: A Heartless Portrait (The Orphéan Testament) - 2022)

We stay out of sight
Forced away from light
We are the never seen
Seeking the lonely streets
We are innocent
Just belong to the once condemned
We hide falling so we die lonely

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

Make me innocent
Erase my ignorance
This world has changed me
I'm starving in my chase to be free
But I'm not innocent
No, I'm not innocent
I'm a fallen fortress
A heartless portrait

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

We'll always unite in the end
We're stronger than most just pretend
We never mind the dark

We are in on the lie
We got no place to go
Falling like leafs end of summer
Slowly withering
We are in on the lie
It got out of control
But we'll always unite
The great unwashed

We're the great unwashed
The great unwashed
The great unwashed
The great unwashed
