A life examined can be unkind
The light of conscience far too harsh
When truth stares back in the reflection
We wish again to have the dark
Face to face and eye to eye
We k** the truth and live the lie
Reality, a spiteful beast
Integrity long since deceased
A catalog of Man's misdeeds
A map of every cruelty
Obscured by time's soft, gauzy curtains
An exercise in futility
Face to face and eye to eye
We k** the truth and live the lie
Reality, a spiteful beast
Integrity long since deceased
The looking gla** reveals our flaws
Unflinchingly and without doubt
Eviscerate the rhapsody
To let the facts coming spilling out
Face to face and eye to eye
We k** the truth and live the lie
Reality, a spiteful beast
Integrity long since deceased
