lyrics

SOME HOLD AUTHORITY IN REVERENCE
AND FEAR IT HOLY AS A GOD.
WHILE OTHERS BLEED FOR ITS SIN WITH NO ONE TO ABSOLVE.
STILL IT PUSHES ON, STILL IT REMAINS UNCHECKED.
IT CHANGES HANDS FROM MAN TO MAN
YET THE SAME VICTIM MEETS THEIR END.
TOTAL CONTROL IS THE WAY WE ALL DIE.
TOTAL POWER IS A DOOMSDAY DEVICE.
SOME FORESEE THE RIGHTEOUS FAIL
AND TRY TO SHAKE THE THOUGHT.
TOO HARD TOO LOOK TO ONESELF AND RECONSIDER WHAT WE’RE TAUGHT.
TO FEEL THE WINDS OF CHANGE FLOW THROUGH AND DISMISS IT WITH A WAVE.
TOO SCARED TO STEP OUT OF LINE WHEN YOU’RE ALREADY SAFE.
SOME QUESTION NOTHING AND ACCEPT THEY HAVE NO VOICE.
DEEP DOWN THEY KNOW IT’S WRONG
BUT CONVINCED THEY HAVE NO CHOICE
BUT TO SAY YES TO THE NEW ORDER, AND DOOM ALL EARTHLY LIFE.
HOW SUITED THAT THE SILENCED HAVE NEVER LEARNED TO FIGHT.
NO SENSE IN BEGGING FOR POWER,
NO POWER IN PLEADING,
TOO LATE.
NO MATTER HOW THEY SELL IT, NO MATTER WHO BLAMES WHO.
WITH EVERY STEP FORWARD, WE FALL.
CAST ASIDE, DIVIDED WE STAND ALONE TO DIE.
FREEDOM IS NOT GIVEN BY THOSE WHO ENSLAVE.
FREEDOM CANNOT EXIST WHILE THERE ARE STILL CHAINS.
NO REFORM, NO MORE REVISIONS. NO TO THE CATTLE PROD. NO TO THE POLITICIAN.
