Foot to the Throat lyrics

Virginia death threat, Virginia creeper vine

The hands that feed intent, choke the purpose of this time

Take all that you can give, and I will make it mine

No care for what you've spent, even fool's gold has it's shine

Never held down, never restrainted

Virtue's foot to the throat

Free of broken chains

Thus always to tyrants

Laugh at the conquered, the victims now betray

And in this Commonwealth

There's merely a common concern for self

We hold these lies to be self-evident

As the dividends will reflect

And in this Commonwealth

There's merely a common concern for self

The coffers have long run dry

Never held down, never restrained

Virtue's foot to the throat

Free of broken chains

Thus always to tyrants

Laugh at the conquered, the victims now betray

Like a bull in a China shop

But the shelves have all been cleared

A thief in an empty vault

The sheep already sheared

A screen door on a submarine

An eagle with a broken wing

Hope in a dead man's dream

The sound of a bell

That will never ring

You're just wasting time
