Foot to the Throat Lyrics[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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

[Outro]
You're just wasting time
You're just wasting time
You're wasting time
