What separates us now is a hazy veil
ignorance, misunderstanding or a vile game
we don’t see eye-to-eye, distrust prevails
vision is not lost, but it’s not the same
ignorance, misunderstanding or a vile game
the knife in my back hurts, it’s intense pain
vision is not lost, but it’s not the same
I’ve learnt my lessons, so no tears reign
the knife in my back hurts, it’s intense pain
What separates us now is a hazy veil
I’ve learnt my lessons, so no tears reign
we don’t see eye-to-eye, distrust prevails

“distrust prevails” is basically the best antidote to the bullshit out there.
