In Formation Lyrics by Defeat the Low

A Nervous Smile

2014

[Verse 2]
By the time you read the words, the truth becomes a blur
They push the pencil to the paper to sell lead
And you never question what you're fed
[Chorus]
Smooth talking rhetoric gets you to forget
And you'll push the slogan until we're dead
The cancer grows, pollutes your head, you can't act appalled
Because we called you out to your face and we told you the truth
As you consume your daily bread, you can't act appalled
Because we called you out to your face
And we told you to think
[Verse 2]
Just to breathe is not to live when belief is the same as myth
They push the pencil to the paper to sell lead and you never question what you're fed
[Chorus 2]
Smooth talking rhetoric gets you to forget
And you push the slogan until we're dead
The cancer grows, pollutes your mind, you can't act appalled
Because we called you out to your face
And we told you the truth for once
As you consume your daily wine, you can't act appalled
Because we called you out to your face
And we told you to think
[Outro]
So we told you the truth
