lyrics

Built on spines of the segregated
Claiming virtue lost in translation
Bodies splayed atop the monument
Hold tight for amancipation

Conveniently colored in hues of relevance
Stitched to the ties of innocence
Yet we lay dying in open pits
The ghosts of old have refused to desist

Idle eyes cling to the precipice
Casting forward
A projection of progress

For what is to come
The horns of wartime resound
For what is to come
Here we descend it is all so frivolous
For what is to come
The horns of wartime resound
What have we done?

Irreverence salting open wounds
Then cauterize to hold the tune
Irreverence salting open wounds
How far will this plunge?

Disrupt this vicious cycle
Start anew

Evading
Fall back into nepotism
Generations struck and reborn
To see the light of tomorrow
Despite the hard years ahead

Diving forward
Sentiment of revolution
Forging weapons
of a fresh conclusion
Until the war horns subside
