Fallen, long fallen are the righteous ones, long gone their high ideals |
|
Corrupted are their leaders, feeding the machine, dreaming of yesterday |
|
Never will I be someone, frightened by your threats, beaten by your clubs |
|
Words are my weapon, conviction is my shield, |
|
A new sun rises but bludgeoned are the upright ones |
|
No remorse, still in power are the criminals, enforcing vicious claims |
|
Wounded and hunted are the deviants, convicted and condemned |
|
Never will I be someone, unsettled by my fears, corroded by this greed |
|
Words are my weapon, conviction is my shield, |
|
A new sun rises but bludgeoned are the upright ones |
|
Never will I be someone, poisoned by your lies, betraying this demise |
|
But your dominion turned my love to horror, |
|
Converted my compassion into my darkest hate |
|
We were about to stall this merciless machine, |
|
Leading a strong-willed youth out of the shadow of your past |
|
Raised in the bombing rain, scarred by an unforgiving war |
|
Executed those who sparked the masses, |
|
Unrepentant, state-aided violence takes its course |
|
Forever will I be the one, draining your blackest tears, |
|
Holding your darkest fears |
|
Real are my weapons, terror is my yield |
|
A dark sun rises and bludgeoned are the upright ones, |
|
Forever bludgeoned are the upright ones |
