Dust in God’s Eye
Live for the pain, dream in pain
You can’t hide from it
Sweet painful pain, you’re the pain
But do you deserve it?
Carry your cross through their streets
Smile, play their games
But hide what’s beneath
The world’s problems are not your fault
Who cares if you’re displaced
You’re a stranger in a stranger’s world
They look but they don’t see
Don’t let your mask fall
Yourself is all you want to be
But damnation won’t set you free
Pretend you bow your head and answer the call
They judge you sane and you’re one of them
But the truth is that you’re the biggest liar of all
And their blindness stops you from standing tall
You’re the anathema
The crime from their nightmares
You’re the wolf among sheep
The forgotten lie
You’re what you’re not faded to be
The dust in God’s eye
“Dust in God’s Eye”
