LYRICS:
I've heard the way you talk when you think I'm not around
Pretty little pity party, sob story, jackoff
Don't let candor bring you down
You wanna play like you're a sorry little fucker?
Well, you better look the part 'cuz the crowd ain't buyin'
You wanna keep your cards close to your chest
But they're wet from the crocodile tears you keep on cryin'

Denial is the god of the victims
So kneel down and pray
Denial is the god of the victims
It's the same thing every day
Kneel down and pray

Another one down the drain
You are never held to blame
One day the mask you hide behind will cut your face
And I can't wait to see you wallow in disgrace

Ain't the mirror your only friend?
Can you recognize yourself?
Can you see right through your skin?
Can you see what lies within?

"So hard done by"'s all you say
Yet you always end up comfy at the end of the day
You're not interesting or sophisticated
But you make damn sure you're celebrated
You've been victimized, agonized, traumatized
And you never let anyone fuckin' forget it
Well, I won't sympathize, justify all the lies
Doesn't matter that you're the one who said it

Denial is the god of the victims
So kneel down and pray
Denial is the god of the victims
It's the same thing every day
Kneel down and pray

Another one down the drain
You are never held to blame
You point one at me, the other four point back at you
I just hope one day you'll have to face the ugly truth

Face the truth
It'll come for you
