Scapegoat Hypocrisy Lyrics


You’re a celebrated icon

Idealized by the mob

Every move you make is scrutinized

Foolish deeds remind us that you’re down to earth

Just like us

But you’re in for the money and that is what we’ll take

Demolishing the Pied d’Estalle

Join us in the pursuit of blame

We need one misstep

You’ll burn, you’ll die, we’ll bury you

Scapegoat hypocrisy

Heroic disillusion from the throne to the grave

One public conclusion

The perpetrator’s fate

When the masses sealed your destiny

You can’t be saved

No matter how strong your defense

As you’re burning, by allies you will be erased

Pariah for the people

Celebrating your collapse

Demolishing the Pied d’Estalle

Join us in the pursuit of blame

We need one misstep

To take you down and bury you

Scapegoat hypocrisy

We’ll dish the dirt on you without shame

You are the chosen one

The one to take the blame

Malfeasance with excuses

We can see through them

Shallowed

Shallowed be thy fame

Your reputation will now be shattered

As the only one who’s framed

Ain’t there any honor in shielding all your allies

Who are dancing on your grave

Once on the ground you’re opening your eyes

Coming to realize what it was all about

They never cared about your deeds

Only driven by their needs

Taking your position and honor what they achieved

Demolishing the Pied d’Estalle

Join us in the pursuit of blame

We need one misstep

You’ll burn, you’ll die, we’ll bury you

Scapegoat hypocrisy
