Here they come like a plague

With a new way to save what they claim to care for today

Dropping to their knees to praise the red machine

Empty shelves, empty minds

In the name of a child that they will only forget

So hard to glimpse the sky with ashes in your eyes

I can see the fear inside you

How you hide behind the anger at anything, you perceive different than your own identity

Effigy of all the words you hate

Standing silent while the world burns down

You watch it burn

Wash the history clean

What they say, what they mean, never matching with what you believe

In their world you can be free, but only if you concede

When the outrage addiction turns fact into fiction

And friction turns words into flame the time for silence is done.

I hope I’m not alone.

Again, again, they turn away, betray

Again, again, they steal the hope within

Again, again, the edges start to fray

Again, again, say anything to win

Again, again, we rise against control

Again, again, refuse to follow blind

Again, again, reject the hallow words

Again, again, we are the fear they feel
