They. Lyrics by Jon Shuemaker

2019

I may be speaking out of turn
Cause I'm high upon the shoulders of giants
Of great minds of Arts and Science
Amidst them kamikaze pilots
With diabolic transmissions
Heat-seeking missiles
And an ulterior guidance
I’m a cub among the lions
A David surrounded by Goliaths
I won't stay silent
I won't stay quiet
There are strings being pulled up in the high ups
So put another stick in the pyre
When in plain sight these hideous events transpire

They’re the ones who are never seen (they)
Pulling the strings behind the scenes (they)

A grand ball
A masquerade
Life's a chessboard and all the players play
Ritualistic
Monopolistic
Sadistic sinister actions
Imperialistic in drastic fashion
Sadomasochistic sexual appetites
Hey do me a solid and wave up to those satellites
Apocalyptic happenings
Metaphysical channeling
A peaceful subversion
No one's panicking

They're the ones who are never seen (they)
Pulling the strings behind the scenes (they)
