Slywoof - Dry Leaves (A Nefarious Tale)

Lyrics:
They've got something that we need
And we've tried to talk, we've tried to keep the peace
For freedom's sake a few may have to bleed
I know it's a sad, sad truth, oh but please...

Don't overthink this tragedy
We've already told you what to believe
Don't overthink this tragedy
Aim your hate at the enemy

Well, I propose we send more muscle to the East
Well, I propose a familiar strategy
Give the people an enemy they can see
Make them believe...

Don't hesitate to cheat

I'm not opposed to making lethal calls
I'm not opposed to watching buildings fall
Stage the biggest catastrophe their eyes have seen
Suck'em in TV...

Your attention please

Now we've got a reason for our war
Watch how quickly they all jump on board
We just narrow down the possibilities
Of what they can perceive

A simple play on their insecurities
And fear ignites like dry leaves
Oh yea...dry leaves

They've got something that we need
And we've tried to talk, we've tried to keep the peace
For freedom's sake a few may have to bleed
I know it's a sad, sad truth, ah but please...

Don't overthink this tragedy
Now we've already told you what to believe
Don't overthink this tragedy
Aim your hate at the enemy
Follow me...

Another war, another day
And shiny things, we can chase
A big ol' car, big ol' house
Chicken wing in my mouth
And don't you try to take this from me
Don't you try messing with my dreams

Make a fool of these conspiracists
Wave the flag or preach that hippy shit
We just narrow down the possibilities
Of what they can perceive

A simple play on their insecurities
And fear ignites like dry leaves
