Lie through your teeth,
This generation is a mess.
People have facades for faces,
They just switch Their mask when you're there.
Fake is in the blood,
The ugly truth wipes them off their feet.
Take them with the flood,
play it over and over till defeat.
Colours fade away
and the sky turns to grey
All I could ever do is smile and say
"Red Ivory eyes,
I could always see through your disguise
Its just the world that you despise.."
Sweetheart, you're the strangest bird alive..
Rumour is the truth these days
People, they listen and repeat
The criminal plays the victim card
and the victim dies unnoticed on the street
They roll and smoke
and snort the coke
Guns make the killer
and the killer burns the home.
Colours fade away
and the sky turns to grey
All I could ever do is smile and say
"Red Ivory eyes,
I could always see through your disguise
Its just the world that you despise.."
Sweetheart, you're the strangest bird alive..
'An eye for an eye,
the whole world will go blind'
Thankfully god created us so that
Broken bones mend with time.
Slightest of quarrels end with blood
Hide your children in your home
The world you knew in your childhood is gone
This is a different darker world.
Red Ivory eyes have seen too much,
Red Ivory eyes say that's enough.
Red Ivory eyes have seen too much,
Red Ivory eyes say that's enough.
Red Ivory eyes have seen too much,
Your Red Ivory eyes beg for love.
