Tom Searle - Gravedigger lyrics

An iron fist in a velvet glove Another vulture posing as a dove Do you have no shame? Look at what you've become You are the reason we are bitter and then some ...bitter and then some They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow But we're still holding on for dear life You sold us all down the river I hope you choke on the vows that you failed to deliver You said you'd change the world, but d**h still flies east The blind lead the blind, so we bomb for peace Gravedigger (gravedigger), there's blood on your hands You built this empire on salt and sand Not all is fair in love and war History repeats, we've seen this all before We've given the vampires the keys to the blood bank They say the more things change, the more they stay the same While the liars leech, the crooked preach So lie through your teeth, lie like you mean it It beggars belief, do you really think that we still f**ing believe it? You f**ing parasite There's no room in here for an honest man Only callous and cold hearts Gravedigger (gravedigger), there's blood on your hands You built this empire on salt and sand Not all is fair in love and war History repeats, we've seen it all before Oppressor, you built this empire on salt and sand Oppressor, you built this empire on salt and sand An iron fist in a velvet glove Another vulture posing as a dove Do you have no shame? Look at what you've become You are the reason we are bitter and then some ...bitter and then some They sing of saviours, we sing of sorrow But we're still holding on for dear life
