Shadows and Sharks

Lyrics

*(Verse 1)* Waving to phantoms, a jester in disguise, Delusional whispers, half-truths and lies, Inbred followers chanting, they don’t know their own cries, With their eyes on the throne, they’re a dying kind. *(Chorus)* Hey, dumbfuck! You think you’re the truth, Riding on a shark, while you’re baiting the goof, Hannibal grinning, battery crackling loud, While you bleed democracy for your trailer trash crowd. *(Verse 2)* Screaming on the stage, but no one’s out there, Spitting out the poison, like you just don’t care, Ignorance is bliss for the sheep in the pen, They’ve thrown out the books and embraced the pretend. *(Chorus)* Hey, dumbfuck! You think you’re the king, But history’s lost, and it ain't just a fling, Hannibal’s laughing, got a knife and a plan, As you drown in your chaos, like a washed-up man. *(Bridge)* Ripping at the seams, of a nation so torn, With each empty promise, another truth is scorned, Illiterate voices echo, lost in the night, While you scheme in the shadows, holding on for the fight. *(Chorus)* Hey, dumbfuck! You think you’re in control, Running from the gallows with a heart made of coal, Hannibal’s waving, riding waves of despair, While you flush down the dream, like you just don’t care. *(Outro)* Invisible crowds, in a hall of regrets, Riding on a shark, choking on the debts, You’re the shit, you’re the darkness, you’ll reap what you sow, And in the end, it’s the truth that will show.
