So save your hopes for another day
When the machine only drains us
Let’s start the revolution
Let’s set fire to all this confusion
We can stop this
We need to stop this
We’ve been blessed with our broken hearts
It allows us to see
We are not alone
Only we can end this.
They want us to agree
That killing is the answer,
That eye for an eye
Is the holy justification.
Well I will not bow down to religious rhetoric
When my brothers and sisters of another nation
Dies at the hands of so called patriots
Who is to say we’re justified?
What right do we have?
To kill for the blood shed.
No amount of dead bodies
Brings back the dead on our soul.
We can’t dig trenches with eyes shut.
Is there any truth in a blanket statement?
Babies killing babies.
While men in three piece suits
Drink cocktails and tally their stock options.
God knows the wicked
They’re posing for pictures
Setting up token news conferences
And counting the money in their 401K
No one knows what to do
But killing seems to fill the void.
Is there enough blood?
Is there enough flesh?
To suffer the need to fulfill our “necessary” sacrifice?
