Verse 1 (0:20)

The hammer and sickle, their symbol of strength
your life is now forfeit; you belong to the state
the "soviet man" has become their cause;
equality through sacrifice, society without flaw

Pre-Chorus 1 (0:38)

Those who defy them
will tremble and fall
The strength in their numbers
will conquer them all

Defiance in silence
seems the only call
For the valiant, the few
who oppose their cause

Chorus 1 (0:57)

One man is rising through the ranks
with every step he takes, his vision's sharpening
he's lifting the veil, sees them clear as day;
the masquerading tyrants perpetrating their play!

GO!

(1:27)

beneath the mask, what lies within?
a mother-load of lies and sin!
beneath the mask, what lies within?
the motherland of lies!

Verse 2 (1:37)

His son laying lifeless, tears stream down his face
Smearing the letters, crumbled from his rage
Their words of rejection echo through his brain
bury his allegiance 'cause it's dead and decayed!

Pre-Chorus 2 Bridgey Section Thing (2:31)

Those who defy them
will tremble and fall
The strength in their numbers
will conquer them all

Defiance in silence
is his only call,
Dismantling their fortress
from inside the walls!

Chorus 2/ Outro (2:49)

One man is rising through the ranks
with every step he takes, his vision's sharpening
he's lifting the veil, sees them clear as day;
the masquerading tyrants perpetrating their play!

One man rose up through the ranks
divulging Soviet agenda to the CIA
he lifted the veil, saw them clear as day;
the masquerading tyrants perpetrating their play! YEAH

Lyrics

floating lonely in this sea of cold
no, I am not who I seem to be
locked in this mission, I will earn their trust
feeding the lies with every drop of blood

you don't fear me, you fear the enemy
but I am the shadow that bends you to their will
is my mission duty, or is it betrayal?
but with so much on the line I cannot fail

this rush is a drug, and I take it with pride
it's my secret addiction to this secret life

this fire in my soul
the flames are burning bright
this life will take its toll

I walk the line in a sacred land
where the power of lies is the measure of man
born to exist here, in this place
I wear no uniform and no one knows my face
when we say goodbye, the months and years fly by
and I return a stranger, back to welcoming eyes
I wish that I could tell you, if you could only know
To keep you safe, how far I'll go

do I fight for what is right?
Is my mission justified? 
nevermind, I cannot falter when lives hang in the balance

betrayal is my game
their secrets are my prey
in time I'll shake them down and show them justice

a dangerous path, walking the razor's edge
maybe I'm a psycho, delusional at best
but every day I fear that I'll be next
another flag presented to my next of kin

this fire in my soul
slowly consuming me
this life will take its toll

I walk the line in a sacred land
where the power of lies is the measure of man
born to exist here, in this place
I wear no uniform and no one knows my face
when we say goodbye, the months and years fly by
and I return a stranger, back to welcoming eyes
I wish that I could tell you, if you could only know
To keep you safe, how far I'll go

the days I've spent away
the friends lost on the way
the souls that I've betrayed
tell me, was it all in vain?

no personality, individuality
I am what they tell me, a puppet on a string
this person that you see, a relic lost at sea
and you're the beacon that brings me home, reminds me what I fight for
