Curveball

When facts are distractions for warfare
Reason has lost the war
Anonymize and conceal
Close the file, nothing is for real

Lie, cover up and distract
It's a million dollar act if played out well
Part of the world ends

The offensive force is in place
Your pieces set, all with grace
All reason is disabled for a while
Manipulation, common sense
Behind your back, bloodstained hands
The world's a stage, don't forget to shine

What is taking you so long
To admit to admit you were wrong
What is taking you so long
To admit to admit you were wrong
What you really try to hide is the monster
The monster you are inside
What you really try to hide is the monster
The monster you are inside

Damage, damage controlled
The truth untold
Another country, another name
Same play, acts the same
Stage the public, doubts are laughed away
Protect reality with a lie
Lives destroyed, the stakes are high
Political immunity will save his day
What is taking you so long
To admit to admit you were wrong
What you really try to hide is the monster
The monster you are inside

Damage, damage controlled
The truth untold
Manage anonymize and conceal
Close all the files
Nothing is revealed
And see the masterplan unfold
