lyrics

I worship at the altar
Of my ego and my intellect
Then I wave my fists at God and wonder
Why it is my life's a wreck
I mock the ones who seem so silly
Loyal to a simple kind of faith
Because I've found ways to complicate it
Force it to fit into my own way

Shame shame shame
We've washed our brains
Because we fear the names of
Dead men walking of dead men walking

I'm not like all these other people
I'm so special look at me unique
I don't follow any leader
Except for all those experts on tv
I water down the truth so I can brag
About my love so deep
I don't care if you all perish
As long as you keep loving me

Shame shame shame
We've washed our brains
Because we fear the names of
Dead men walking of dead men walking

Bold look at me so bold
Speaking all the words that I've been sold

Brave look at me so brave
Speaking like a parrot in a cage

Virtuous look at all my virtue
I don't know how I do all that I do

It's easy
It's easy
It's easy
It's easy

Just close your eyes and shut your ears
And shut your mouth out of fear
Don't ever stand on what you know
Keep shallow faith don't ever grow
Make foolish men into your gods
And just pretend you're not their pawn
It's easy it's easy

But we are not all asleep
We see the dead for what they are
We've put to bed the fear inside of dead men walking
Of dead men walking
Of dead men walking
