GESICHT DES BETRUGS (engl.: FACE OF BETRAYAL ) Songtext / Lyric

HOLLOW MASK, MADE-UP FACE
SCORNFUL LAUGHTER FOR CRITICAL QUESTIONS
FAR AWAY FROM REALITY THE WORDS ARE PRESSED
ON THE WELL-FED MASS OF PEOPLE

FACE OF BETRAYAL
PROSPERITY LIE
FACE OF BETRAYAL
FACE OF BETRAYAL - AND THE SHOW GOES ON

EMPTY SLOGANS AGAINST THE URGE OF TRUTH
PROMISES THAT ARE NEVER KEPT
CARRYING A CHILD IN THE WINNER POSE
SOUL BALM AS A BAIT FOR THE PEOPLE

URGE TO CONQUER, CRAVING FOR POWER
EXPANSION AT EVERY COST
TAX REFORM AT THE POOR'S EXPENSE
NEW GHETTOS FOR A SECURE FUTURE
