A reflection of inner misconceptions
Our projections are restless inventions
Separation of self from the rest its
A betrayal of the higher minds’ message
What we take in the name of a faith
What we make in the name of our hate
How we crave for blood in the dirt
How we slave for the end of the hurt
Point a finger under pressure in the search for an answer
Crucify your brother in the age of the cancer
Reaper on the iron horse
Thoughts plagued in this day when paradise lost
Hid behind seats of unlimited power
Minds twisted in greed and need to devour
The hearts of the many in the hands of the few
Minds on the penny and the flame to the fuse
Breakdown the walls and see
What we could always be
Let inside the light we need
To stop this violence
Violence
A primal desire a tribal survival
To conquest stretched out every mile
Paranoia loaded in the silos
Big brothers got eye anywhere I go
I am a piece a pawn upon a chessboard
All drawn on the tablets of war sworn
Tiny troopers to die in a field
Where the unreal is real with monstrous appeal
They set the game up where winner takes all
And the spoils like ashes will fall
An the age of our rage in the name of the dungeon master
Hazard clapse the gas masks
Ask for truth and hear the static grow louder
Little men in the big arms race for power
Hearts of the many in the hands of the few
Minds of the penny and the flame to the fuse
Breakdown the walls and see
What we could always be
Let inside the light we need
To stop this violence
Violence
Say no war
Say no to power contorted
No longer sleep to the sirens lullaby
Say no greed
The intentions morbid
No longer lust for violent suicide
Greeting peace with every breath til we unify
Every second take a step
From our dooms rise
Making love not war in the eyes of the lord
All together as one become the light source
Say no war
Say no to power contorted
No longer sleep to the sirens lullaby
Say no greed
The intentions morbid
No longer lust for violent suicide
Greeting peace with every breath til we unify
Every second take a step
From our dooms rise
Making love not war in the eyes of the lord
All together as one become the light source
Violence
Breakdown the walls and see
What we could always be
Let inside the light we need
To stop this violence
