Pearls Before Swine

Father forgive me
Mother forsake me
I think they've all become too strong
Brother believe me
Silence is deadly
And it's giving me the strength to carry on

Time has come, now I'm blind, deaf and numb
You're killing me, whoa, you're killing me
When I look into your eyes, I can see it's the world that you despise
And you're giving me the strength to carry on
Lord, forgive me

Look for the devils in their eyes
Laughing, the blood has long been dried
To hide in your disguise, it goes on and on and on
Wallow, pearls before swine

If the liar deceives you
Then the sin will appear true
Even if it leads me to the end
Killer accuse me
The devil breathes easy
And he's giving me the strength to carry on

Time has come, now I'm blind, deaf and numb
You're killing me, whoa, you're killing me
When I look into your eyes, I can see it's the world that you despise
And you're giving me the strength to carry on
Lord, forgive me

Look for the devils in their eyes
Laughing the blood has long been dried
To hide in your disguise it goes on and on and on
Wallow, pearls before swine

Now you've blown away the sun
Now you've blown away the sun
Darkened eyes and bitten tongue
Now you've blown away the sun
