Veil from Earthworks by Anthony and the Mountain

and the lies that we raise
like the twist of a knife
keeping patterns we play
until the hand is a sleight

you go ahead and pretend
that the water is clear to rise
in the swell and the bend
you can't look me in the eye

but jesus loves you
and that's enough to
hold us all hostage of a veil
you couldn't see the sky through
and a tremendous scream
echoes from beneath
it's gonna bury us all

and the trust we betray
in the crush of design
how much loss must it take
to distort all the lines?

you go ahead and pretend
that the water is clear to rise
in the swell and the bend
you can't look me in the eye

but jesus loves you
and that's enough to
hold us all hostage of a veil
you couldn't see the sky through
and a tremendous scream
echoes from beneath
it's gonna bury us all

jesus loves you
and that's enough to
hold us all hostage of a veil
you couldn't see the sky through
and a tremendous scream
echoes from beneath
it's gonna bury us all
