Goodbye to the Land of Hypocrites


The land of hypocrites
   Is a beguiling place
Say one thing, do another
Give a smile, love your brother
An interesting land
   Where no can read
   What’s behind your face


The land of hypocrites
   I’ve been a long time there
Slap your back, make a promise
Turn away, heed the commerce
An interesting land
   No matter what happens
   It’s never really fair


The land of hypocrites
   Only has magic for so long
Spin doctor, slimey words
Well, well, strange things occur
An interesting land
   I want to move on
   March to another song

The land of hypocrites
   Memories – all that’s left
Tell the truth, breathe again
Be yourself, no more pain
An interesting land
   Where integrity stops
   You feeling bereft
