They Want a War

lyrics

Complacency - That is the enemy

Keep your eyes on the nightmare of living

Punished by a fool’s superstition

They’d kill me for fake competition

Their only respect for their vision

Men take on the worst kings, they’re turned in, they’re on death row

I’m willing, and expected to wallow

But do you really expect me to follow?

Our progress is so god-damn hollow

If think this is worth it - you' haven't the mind

If you're looking for answers - expect none to find

The men that have power don't want you to know

You put in the effort, but they run the show

If it's the world that you hate - well, you make it so

Ignoring the problem makes their power grow

They Want a War --- It's so easy to see

The new age propaganda --- Is every ad on the streets

They want a war --- For American minds

Where to stand up for reason – is the fate of the blind

And in this nation --- Shall the fodder grow

An ethical extinction --- the lower class shall know

ill fates face all betrayers

To betray faith is greater

Within my heart’s a traitor

Our death, our vindicator

At last, the vision – it’s past our control

We mount opinions; they’re counting the death toll

Like old politicians, we’re parting the sea

Their willing to fall in, and offer the whole thing

Nothing will make it – not me I’m sure

I’m lost in the hatred of my own conjecture

We’re blurring the vision from under their eyes

There’s nothing to say, my hopes have died

For this war … salvation is your misery

To be saved is just….

For this war … deprivation is all that I see

And for what?

In our time – all debts paid

Now what’s left?
