Scapegoat
Fear Factory · The Best Of Fear Factory [1993]
Meanings of our laws
Already guilt?
Something has a flow
Wrongly accused
Blindly confused
Open your eyes
Try to realize
[Chorus:]
Don't you know
You can't see
Too damn blind
To judge me!
Wrongly accused
Blindly confused
Open your eyes
Try to realize
[Chorus]
Laws are meant to follow
But they've mislead you
Conceal their meanings
So they can suit you
Misjudged by the system
No one ever knows
No one
No one knows
No one
No one
No one knows...
Judges have decimated
Meanings of our laws
Already guilt?
Something has a flow
Wrongly accused
Blindly confused
Open your eyes
Wake up, realize!
[Chorus, repeat 3rd verse]
