gunpowder factory

from the album the Vulnerary Songs

shame on me
let you preach
your foolish lies
have to try
expose the truth now
the big surprise

hey now, you listened quietly
you never questioned, once
the hate behind his eyes
as if the venom wouldn’t spread
wouldn’t hurt, but we all know

hey now, you sat there quietly
never questioned, once
the fire in his eyes
as if the flames wouldn’t spread
wouldn’t burn, but we all know

it’s a match in a gunpowder factory
