NPT is just a ghost

Verse 1

Wire taps and backroom deals

Johnson’s paper breaks the seals

NPT is just a ghost

Tear the treaties off the coast

A borrowed bomb from a nameless shore

Knocking hard at the temple door

Dust on the desert line

Running out of stolen time

Pre-Chorus

Northern borders turning cold

Warning sirens stories told

Evacuate the quiet street

Underneath the summer heat

Chorus

Heard the message in the static

Signals becoming problematic

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

Verse 2

Riyadh turns its back on West

Doha putting fate to test

New alliances are born

Woven into eastern thorn

Pakistan and China wait

Inside the garden at the gate

Russian steel on southern sands

Shifting weight of distant lands

Pre-Chorus

Ceasefire words are made of glass

Watching every minute pass

Phone calls from the velvet chair

Smoke is thick inside the air

Chorus

Heard the message in the static

Signals becoming problematic

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

Bridge

Telling us it is fine

Telling us it is safe

Telling us it is over

Drawing circles in the dirt

Tailored news for home defense

Paying for the consequence

Chorus

Heard the message in the static

Signals becoming problematic

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

It is a shadow play for a crowd

When the truth is screaming out loud

Drop

Signals problematic

Truth screaming out loud
