Monks On The Moon Pay The Price Lyrics

Pay the Price

We don't need to hear about it
We don't need to care
Shouldn't have to think about it
Or feel the need to share

Deep beneath the raging silence
Battle lines are drawn
Dark clouds loom on the horizon
The calm before the storm

You gotta pay the price
But don't believe 'em
You gotta pay the price
Prove you don't need 'em
You gotta pay the price
When truth is bleeding
Truth is bleeding

Headlines scream the senseless violence
Hateful echoes form
Left and right can't find the middle
Truth becomes the pawn

Everyone has backstage passes
To hear the thunder roll
Lightning to distract the masses
Rain to soothe the soul

You gotta pay the price
But don't believe 'em
You gotta pay the price
Prove you don't need 'em
You gotta pay the price
When truth is bleeding
Truth is bleeding

Another lie to fuel the fire
One more fans the flames
Both sides preaching to the choir
Both sides laying blame

Loaded up with ammunition
Blindly taking aim
At the slightest opposition
To take back centre stage

You gotta pay the price
No don't believe 'em
You gotta pay the price
Prove you don't need 'em
You gotta pay the price
When truth is bleeding
