Leviathan - 'The World is Watching' (official video)
The World is Watching
Manipulate a fact for nothing but a cheap thrill.
Call it what you will.
Kneel to dishonesty, falling scapegoat,
Pawn, or inbred shill.
From the trenches, unwashed masses rise
And strike with a rebel yell.
Time will tell.
History warns us.
Tyrants whose kingdoms fell.
Guilt of perverse crimes, hung in a prison cell.
News of the day spread in such a way.
Positioned between the fray, fourth estate, third wave.
The Whole World is Watching
We always say, “Never again.”
On and on, this is the last time.
The whole world is watching you lose.
Flee the scene to lessen the sting.
Embarrassed to say why.
The whole world is watching you fall.
Answer the call, caged little rat,
Tried to squirm away, avoid the trap.
The whole world is watching you crawl.
The whole world is watching.
Freedom is never free.
Splintered impartiality.
Defend the obscured.
Delusional pride
Believe me or lying eyes.
The Whole World is Watching you Fall.
Believe in the word, spoken or overheard.
Written down without a sound.
Skin carved dreams from the underground.
Do not let the words die.
See with unpolished eyes.
Last breath upholds ideals.
Without sacrifice what would be real?
Cannot have truth without trust.
Expose decency covered in rust.
Freely broadcast the airwaves.
In exchange for moral transparency.
Looking forward, will common sense prevail?
The earth looks so tired, sick, and pale.
Put us out of our misery.
Time to decide.
Live for balance or die.
Trying to prove your side right.
Nine o'clock blues, misread the news.
Trust erodes, exaggeration of head explodes.
Hope of new spun askew.
Tear us down, try to turn us around.
Hyperbole blown through.
The Whole world is watching you Fall.
The whole World is Watching.
Darkness to overcome. Hard to make it through.
Check on power, train wreck, look away.
Balance constitution and renew.

Ο όγδοος "ολοκληρωμένος" δίσκος των Leviathan βρίσκεται ήδη εκεί έξω. Ο διάδοχος του album "Words Waging War" (Νοέμβριος 2020) των Αμερικανών progsters τιτλοφορείται "Mischief of Malcontent" και "βγήκε" προ ημερών.
Οι Leviathan υπάρχουν στο μουσικό σύμπαν από τα τέλη της δεκαετίας του ογδόντα (με ένα... μεγάλο διάλειμμα στο ενδιάμεσο). Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει οκτώ "ολοκληρωμένους" δίσκους, ένα live album, ένα ep, ένα demo και μία συλλογή. Από την αρχική σύνθεση της μπάντας έχει παραμείνει ο John Lutzow...
