Story Behind the Song
Paradoxical, parable about how certain individuals go out of their way to make your life miserable and eventually get their comuppance when they realize they are to blame for their own lack of integrity and conviction.
Lyrics
(Intro)
Manipulate all of the pain. Assassinate, make me insane.
There’s no truth beyond reason, no honor in treason.
You’ve stolen what’s left of my name.
(1/2 chorus)
Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame. Hide, ‘cause you’re spineless and inane.
You’ve left crippled and dead in your path. Good people have suffered your wrath.
But soon I’m expecting, your reign is soon ending.
I’ll spit on your grave and I’ll laugh.
(Full chorus)
Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame. Hide, ‘cause you’re spineless and inane.
Now, ‘cause the world is changing and you, will find your face in the,
Mirror, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame.
(bridge)
You, are vile -- despicable! Re-pul-sive -- disposable. Soul-less -- so conspicuous.
There’s, just no use for you... Now, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame.
You’ve condemned me to drown in your wake. Unless I can harness my fate.
I’ll live through your beating, my conscience I’m heeding,
I won’t let you kill me with hate.
(Full chorus)
Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame. Hide, ‘cause you’re spineless and inane.
Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame. Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame.
Hide, ‘cause you just can’t face the blame. Now, 'cause the world is changing...
