quantity is their quality

Memphis May Fire

I do not know the American Gentlemen
God forgive me for putting such words together
Undone you're no different than all the rest
A life full of greed with no heart in your chest

Full to your throats you cry out Starvation!
Oh what a joke and waste of creation
You are the only one to blame for all the choices you made

I'll lower your body down into an open grave
And let the vultures have their way with you
We'll take you by surprise and spill your blood like wine
Scarlet stains upon the flesh will end the night

Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time

When I look out my window
I see a nation filled with disgrace
All the thieves and the liars
And you're there with a smirk on you're face

Everything you say rings hallow
But you will tell your stories again and again
Sell your half truths with a smile
Take and inject it, inject it!

You think we don't know a thing
But I can see straight through you
You think that we believe everything that you say
My God, things aren't looking good

Now the tables have turned
And you see this, you see this
For what it really is
Now the tables have turned
And you see this, you see this

It all seems so out of place
We think that we're safe right here
And let you mismanage it all
For once now I see it so clear
Don't even try to run because
You will find that we are not blind
And we're not amused
So that this is just the way that it goes
But everyone knows
(Looks like you got it all figured out
Brave from a distance for everyone to marvel
And applaud at the sound
These lines were drawn for your days on end
So get out of focus and blend in
Failure is what you've become
You're a failure, Failure!)

Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time
Rest your head and soon you will find
Beauty is young and will die in time

Rest your head
