Leviathan rises |
|
From the ocean of our fear |
|
Falling to our knees we cower |
|
Bequeathing to this edifice |
|
A monopoly of force |
|
This parasitic beast is drunk with power |
|
We've let our fears destroy |
|
Our dignity and freedom |
|
And turned our backs on all |
|
The principles we once held dear |
|
Behemoth rises |
|
From the soils of jealousy |
|
Equality enforced on pain of death |
|
Mistaking mankind's progress |
|
For a dialectic truth |
|
And smothering the spirit that's behind it |
|
From each according to ability we'll give away |
|
To each according to his need |
|
Until the years grind into dust |
|
Cast off the chains we've made |
|
And refuse to dig our graves |
|
Stand up, the lives we save |
|
Will be our own |
|
Reclaiming liberty |
|
We'll starve the beast |
|
We've let our fears destroy |
|
Our dignity and freedom |
|
And placed ourselves beneath the heel |
|
Of our own entitlement |
|
Cast off the chains we've made |
|
And refuse to dig our graves |
|
Stand up, the lives we save |
|
Will be our own |
