Lines drawn in black and white

Jackals spoil for a firefight

In fear we trust to snuff out the light

Tables turning from left to right

In a scapegoat parade, you stand accused

Against the grain of truth, without a shred of proof

A self-righteous charade, to execute

They need a scapegoat parade, to persecute

It's your neck on the blade, in a scapegoat parade

Unbalanced scales will tip

With just one fatal slip

At your heels the jackals rip

When white knuckles fail to grip

In a scapegoat parade, you stand accused

Against the grain of truth, without a shred of proof

A self-righteous charade, to execute

They need a scapegoat parade, to persecute

It's your neck on the blade, in a scapegoat parade

Scapegoat - eyes in the back of your head

Scapegoat - still only seeing red

Scapegoat - with every step you tread

Scapegoat - you might just wind up dead

Your word in null and void

Reality gone paranoid

The jackals overjoyed

To look on as you are destroyed

In a scapegoat parade, you stand accused

Against the grain of truth, without a shred of proof

A self-righteous charade, to execute

They need a scapegoat parade, to persecute

It's your neck on the blade, in a scapegoat parade
