Lift The Veil Lyrics - Singles - Cry Of The Afflicted

Our perception, so limited and so restrained 

A symptom of our condition 

Mass confusion, the evidence of staring blind 

A symptom of our condition 

But we're ready, ready to face illusion 

Ready, ready to survey dark vistas 

Where forgotten realities have come to the surface 

New details, inner workings of the machine 

Ours to discover 

Lift the veil, give us focus 

A view flawless, we're so naive 

Lift the veil, the faint shading 

Of the world that we perceive 

Steady, steady, we won't shy away 

Steady, steady, as we face the unveiling 

Where we see everything anew 

Enhanced by a new light 

Mask lifted from the face 

Of the world we knew 

It's all coming clearer 

Lift the veil, give us focus 

A view flawless, we're so naive 

Lift the veil, the faint shading 

Of the world that we perceive 

Have we always viewed our world 

World subdued out of focus? 

Have we always looked through broken 

Broken lenses, broken lenses? 

Have we let ourselves 

Be convinced, be convinced 

That our privilege is justified, ours by right? 

Ours by right, ours by right 

Lift the veil, give us focus 

A view flawless, we're so naive 

Lift the veil, the faint shading 

Of the world that we perceive 

Lift the veil, give us focus 

A view flawless, we're so naive 

Lift the veil, the faint shading 

Of the world that we perceive
