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 its shine
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
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 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
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 You're just wasting time You're wasting time
