You claim to be the martyr, but the chains are in your hands
Preaching peace and honor, while you conquer foreign lands
You dress your words in virtue, but they're poison in disguise
Behind your broken promises, it's the truth that slowly dies
Point your fingers, light the fire
Blame the weak for your empire
Twist the story, bend the sound
Until the truth can't be found
Play the victim, play the saint
Wear the mask of all you ain't
Cry for peace while you wage war
Deny the pain, but you want more
Play the victim, play it loud
Stand on bones to wear your crown
Hide the power in your plea
You're the wolf who cries for mercy
The flags you raise, they're bleeding, soaked in conquest and in pride
You rewrite history's pages, where your shame and guilt reside
With every bomb, you whisper, "It's for freedom, can't you see?"
But the chains you forge are heavy, binding those who can't be free
Twist the meaning, twist the blame
Turn the hero into shame
Reap the spoils, claim the light
Even though you fuel the fight
Play the victim, play the saint
Wear the mask of all you ain't
Cry for peace while you wage war
Deny the pain, but you want more
Play the victim, play it loud
Stand on bones to wear your crown
Hide the power in your plea
You're the wolf who cries for mercy
In the end, the truth will rise
You can't hide behind your lies
The shattered lives, the endless graves
Will haunt the monsters you create
Play the victim, play the saint
Wear the mask of all you ain't
Cry for peace while you wage war
Deny the pain, but you want more
Play the victim, play it loud
Stand on bones to wear your crown
Hide the power in your plea
You're the wolf who cries for mercy
Cry for mercy...
But we see...
Play the victim, play it loud
Stand on bones to wear your crown
Hide the power in your plea
You're the wolf who cries for mercy
Cry for mercy...
But we see...
