Libitina Pariah

You dress me in the colours



That you want to see



You know enough to sit and judge



Before setting eyes on me



There is nothing I can do or say



That will make your prejudice sway







Pariah



Vox populi



Vox dei



Pariah



The voice of the people is the voice of God







I run the gauntlet daily



The ignorance of your eyes



The violence under the surface



Just waiting to be scratched







It seems a world of uniformity



Is what you want and need



And for offending your autocracy



I have to be made to bleed



You can form only one expression



That of senseless destruction







Pariah



Vox populi



Vox dei



Pariah



The voice of the people is the voice of God







I run the gauntlet daily



The ignorance of your eyes



The violence under the surface



Just waiting to be scratched







Hidden secure behind your strength of numbers



"Nobly" you uphold the id?e re?u



Espousing values, simply mirrored



To think for yourself just wouldnt be you



You see original thought as sin



Your scornful bleatings form a Luddite hymn
[ Pariah Lyrics ]
