Cast-Iron Silhouette

Persecuting Hands
Guilty even when innocent The truth is public discretion Media created nightmares Who knew that life was so unfair? Rumors spew from another mouth They think they've got this figured out No, they just want this done with Don't really care what the truth is As long as there's someone to blame Just looking for someone to hate You're not at fault but they're all against you You're not what they say but they'll reshape you Make you a monster; make you detestable The lies they spread are uncontrollable The worlds sold out and started following How long ‘til angry mobs start the burnings? They'll stand you at the steak And desecrate your name Drag it through the mud All of this because They're paranoid they panicked And couldn't let go Just couldn't let go Letras de canciones Accused of crimes you didn't do They know this but still finger you Because you're their only suspect And they need someone to condemn You're the one the media named So by the public you get shamed Took what they heard made it the truth Every lie tightening the noose Supposedly you're innocent But that's not public opinion You weren't at fault but they stood against you You weren't what they said but they reshaped you Made you a monster; made you detestable The lies they spread were uncontrollable The world gave in and began following It didn't take long to start the burnings They've stood you at the steak Desecrated your name Drug it through the mud All of this because They were paranoid they panicked And couldn't let go Just couldn't let go But they let go Of the stones in their hands In sticks with flaming ends The rope around your neck With persecuting hands They let go of their rage They let it loose on you Oh my God they let go Of the stones in their hands In sticks with flaming ends The rope around you're neck With persecuting hands My God they let go They let it all come out Unleashed all their rage Let it loose on you They let it out on you They've stood you at the steak Desecrated your name Drug it through the mud All of this because They were paranoid they panicked And couldn't let go Just couldn't let go But they let go Oh my God they let go On you From Letras Mania
