Gavel and the Grin_(Lyrics in description)

Описание: Gravel and the grin - Lyrics

[verse]
The scale is tipped before the coin is even tossed
A game of shadows where the innocent are lost
Behind the bench a tyrant hides in silken robes
While justice sleeps and power probes the globe
The shield they carry shouldn't be a mask for sin
But they use the badge to hide the rot within
They call me mad for seeing through the gray
But their world of madness turns the light away

[chorus]
It's a backwards world in a twisted frame
Where the guilty walk and the victims take the blame
It's a bitter irony, a heavy, jagged truth
They steal the future and they poison all our youth
Yeah, the world is broken, spinning out of line
Waiting for a sun that never learns to shine

[verse]
A compliment is sweet if you've got a pretty face
But if you're plain, it’s a creep in a public space
They use their beauty like a blade to cut the soul
Manipulating hearts just to take control
They look at loved ones and they see a stepping stone
Building up a kingdom while they sit there all alone
The butterfly effect is a storm across the sea
And every little lie is a chain on you and me

To be betrayed you first had to give your trust
Now the iron heart is turning into rust
The disrespect, the cold disloyalty we find
One person’s pain is left for the next in kind
It breaks my heart to see the cycle start again
An endless loop of grief, a symphony of pain

[chorus]
It's a backwards world in a twisted frame
Where the guilty walk and the victims take the blame
It's a bitter irony, a heavy, jagged truth
They steal the future and they poison all our youth
Yeah, the world is broken, spinning out of line
Waiting for a sun that never learns to shine.

They say I'm crazy, they say I've lost my mind
But I'm the only one who isn't acting blind
The madness is the mirror that they hold so high
Underneath a broken and a bleeding sky
Just a broken world
Just a twisted lie
