Portray an image of power and security   Foundations crumble at the base   Inner turmoil reflection read externally   Veil of lies attempts to hide our face      Descend      Molten masses in their image we are a formed   Art of deception mastered skillfully   Decay of value stifled cry of the unborn   With open eyes we still refuse to see      Respond arise nation divided      Selfish syringe draining lifeblood from our veins   Pallid skin displays condition true   Struggling on oblivious to our own pain   Contented smile as we continue to descend      "We've got ... once and for all on a global basis."      "Have the hostage story blow up in our face."      "We've got big economic problems but we are not coming apart at the seems."      "The decline of the urban America stems from the decline of the American family."      "We're the United States."      "Atomic bomb"      "We are all responsible for this."
