lyrics

Juvenile eyes with old despair
Stealing our innocence
Without wiping away the tears
Blind to the pain
Through the eyes of western guilt
Hands outstretched to our captors
Trapped in the walls they build
We are all bearing witness to the crime
Watching under the guise of goodwill

Selling tribal wounds as ammo
Hoisting crosses in the place of transgression
I'm done

An ego built on what you can't prove
Half lies and quarter truths
And dread
We are all dead
We are all dead

Years of smiling at a rising sun
Abandoned
Dressed in chains
No trumpets, no folded flags
Just a ceremony of death
Marching in your name
