Play the Fool

There's errors on the airwaves and a liar in the dark They let us in, they let us win, they showed us who we are Self-proclaiming prophets are the voices that you seek While dying men build futures never meant for you or me Name the sage, then deny the truth Burn the pages It's all a ruse, it's all a ruse Blame your rage for the rest of you And take the stage, it's time to play the fool Pacifying bastards guard the answers from us all They let us know it's all a show before the curtain call Misanthropic masters casting caution to the wind Cashing out to ride the high until our bitter end Name the sage, then deny the truth Burn the pages It's all a ruse, it's all a ruse Blame your rage for the rest of you And take the stage, it's time to play the fool Pick up the pieces, get with the flow This is your moment, make it a show Pick up the pieces, get with the flow Hail to the manic manifesto Pick up the pieces, get with the flow This is your moment, make it a show Pick up the pieces, get with the flow Hail to the manic manifesto Name the sage, then deny the truth Burn the pages It's all a ruse, it's all a ruse Blame your rage for the rest of you And take the stage, it's time to play the fool
