Cast No Shadows
Unveiling Truth: Casting Shadows on Deception
Lyrics
I will not give in to what the TV sells
I resist succumbing to what is propagated through television advertisements.
The bullshit news and the lies they tell
The false information and deceit spread through media outlets.
Convince us that we're lost
The attempts to manipulate us into believing that we are directionless.
They try to sell us maps, we'll buy at any cost
Efforts to sell us guidance or solutions at any price.
Just really what is going on?
Questioning the truth of current events.
I'd like to find out myself
Desire to investigate independently.
But I might need the help
Admitting the possible need for assistance.
So can you come along?
Asking for companionship in this quest for truth.
Poke out your eyes so you can't see
Metaphorical suggestion to blind oneself to the deceit.
Casting shadows
Creating illusions or deceptions.
Your retina's burnt, now we can lead
Manipulating perception after blinding.
Casting shadows
Continuation of the theme of obscuring truth.
So we can't see the things that were meant to be seen
The deliberate hindrance of witnessing what is meant to be observed.
This world is more like a nightmare and less like a dream
Comparing the world to a distressing experience rather than a pleasant one.
I will not give into twisted history
Refusal to accept distorted historical narratives.
All the half-assed facts make truth a mystery
Incomplete or misleading information obscuring the truth.
Or all the full on lies
Contemplating whether deliberate falsehoods dominate.
We're children left behind, do we have clear skies?
Querying if there's hope for a clear, unclouded future.
What really constitutes a lie?
Questioning the definition of falsehoods.
It may not matter when you lie to yourself
Speculation on self-deception.
But when you lie to us
Warning against deceiving the populace.
You can expect unrest
Predicting unrest as a consequence of deception.
Casting shadows
Reiterating the theme of obscuring reality.
So we can't see the things that were meant to be seen
Continuation of hindering the perception of truth.
This world is more like a nightmare and less like a dream
Comparing the world to a distressing experience rather than a pleasant one.
Does it mean it's souls they try to steal?
Contemplation on whether souls or identities are being stolen.
So evil, so unreal
Describing the perceived malevolence as surreal.
You can bargain all you want with me
Refusing negotiations with the deceptive forces.
No deal
Declaring an outright rejection of any deal proposed by the deceitful entities.
Still no deal
Reiterating the refusal to engage in any agreement.
