Of Mice & Men - The Lie

The human race, what did we create?
We left our mark, mere repercussions of choices made.
This is the end, multiply and spread.
What did you expect when you rape our lands and dig our graves?

Force feeding chemicals into the mouths of all our youth,
you’ll lie despise all of our lives, you’re terrified of truth.
We see you pulling strings of puppets as we speak,
the perennial killing of anything that you see fit…

How could you do this to the ones that you’re above?
How could you do this to the ones that you’re above?
I've had enough!

We’re desolate and no one cares,
As we march ahead towards the end,
And over the edge...

The countless souls that you were once responsible to feed,
their hunger burns inside your bones red hot like molten heat.
Search low and high, and maybe you’ll find,
search low and high, and maybe you’ll find…

You’re not above me!
I've had enough!

We’re desolate and no one cares,
As we march ahead towards the end,
And over the edge...

Listen!
Listen…

Why do some have it all and others they have none?
Why do some have it all and others they have none?
Why do some have it all and others they have none?
Why do some have it all and others they have NOTHING!?!
We’ve been lied to!
We’ve been lied to!

As time goes by and people get over themselves they will go back to this album and say "damn, this was actually a hell of a record"

[chloecontreraz]

Anyone still come back to this album and wish Austin was back 😔 he was one of my biggest inspirations and still is. OF MICE & MEN has really changed my life for the better and has made me see so much within these years #StillListening2021

[maddieroberts]

Just saying the clapping in this song is actually a fan who passed away from brain cancer. Her name was cassy

[HayesByeGrey]

This whole album hits hard. It’s heavy but also balances well the clean vocals.

[chunkuswumpus]

Austin Charlie went all in on his last record and it REALLY shows. 100% buying this

[sabrinaesquivel]

I DON'T CARE WHAT ANYONE SAYS THIS ALBUM WAS A

[dk]

people!! read the lyrics! it's about more then the sound of it. more and more people are waking up to the light and this is one of the best ways to get the message out in this society!

[shizmigie]

The new album is so sick. I questioned it at first when they released Pain and Real, I wasn't too sure about the new sound. But I've been on here listening to the rest of the album and I'm in love with it. Once again Of Mice and Men has blown it out of the water. You guys are amazing and I hope you never stop doing what you do 🤘🏻

[sorchs]

i really like this album, well done lads

[SherySecondhand]

I love everything about this song.
the lyrics. the riffs. the screams. the drums. everything

[hushyael]

I feel like a big reason they changed their sound was cuz screaming was actually killing Austin in a way, so he tried to take it a little easier, and so they changed to match him

[calebhatch]

These words are more true now than ever

[animebandsotaku]

love this song and album and band, cant wait for their tour!!

[NeverLoseLoveJoyHope]

I can't believe I heard bad things about this song its talking about actual world issues we need to care about if we care about other humans and our home planet.

[genn]

love the lyrics, finally a band who understand ! 👌🏻

[FollowerofDuck]

i didnt think it was possible to be in love w a song until i found this

[GHeroes]

love the strings on this song. awesome

I've loved OM&M since 2008 and yeah, their sound has changed but honestly, in my opinion, they've gotten so much better and have grown so much.

[letitsimmer]

My first time listening to OM&M was Restoring Force and I really liked a couple of songs off of it, same with Cold World as well. When I go through the comments I always see that the first two albums are better, so I tried listening to them -- they're definitely not my taste. I think they sound much more matured now.

[kierrascott]

a song is meaningless without a message, and just about everyone song on this album has one. I'm forgetting people that hates this album and says it's weak, but I can hear they put their heart into this. other can't see it but I do. Gj OM&M
