There is a scourge in the guise of sanctity
A perpetrator with a quill
Although it's
Not perceived and although it’s not mystery
The accuser sends the bill

I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall

Because faith is mine!

The Luddites shun the diabolical
A fecal trail across the land
Although it
Stinks, feels and looks identical
And a pack of fools can take the stand

I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall

Because faith is mine!

I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall
I am all eyes
I am all ears
I am the wall
And I'm watching you fall

Because faith is mine!
