The Herd Will Scatter

(album: Weight Of The False Self - 2020)

Consistent
Conscious
Deliberate
Intent to deceive
Decided voices
Spreading the myths to believe
Repeating falsehoods
Destroying as it spreads
Discourage the thinker
Discredit the messengers

From those who have nothing
So much more will be taken
(More will be taken)
To those who have everything
So much more will be given
(More will be given)

(We knew) There would come a time when
(We knew) Lies would be brought into
The light
Now the fear runs rampant
They strike and the herd will scatter
Playing upon their fears
Playing upon their fears

The senses flooded the future
Unrelenting bleakness
Sowing misfortune
Reaping perpetual disaster
Surrender no longer an option
Dissipation
Degraded purpose
Abandoned isolation

From those who have nothing
So much more will be taken
(More will be taken)
To those who have everything
So much more will be given
(More will be given)

The light shown upon the shepherd
They strike and the herd will scatter
Once the fear runs rampant
They'll be unattended
Once they strike the shepherd down

Strike the shepherd and the herd will scatter
Isolation spells death
