Lyrics Seditions in Peacetime - Hexen

Seditions in Peacetime

Low and behold…
The media is in unrest and the public is in tensions
All because they silenced him too late
Apprehending the members, presuming their power
Living in fear and a paranoid state
A false identity
Nevertheless they’re still after me
I was framed yet they have me on tape
Erase any hopes to escape…
Erase any hopes to escape
Peace… at a price!
Lives are sacrificed
Helpless and laced with hate
In prison for years, that’s the meaning of pain
With words as their weapon they stir shit in this scare
Intensifying conspiracies to save them from despair
Now they’ve got a corpse lying on the Capital’s steps
Preamble to the crisis that’s in store for them next
Spying for a foreign power convicted of treason
A New McCarthy-ist era twice in size
Now it’s up to them and their discretion
Before the whole system is paralyzed
Blind… leading the blind
They’ve dine it once;
they’ll do it again
Speak just one word of it though
If your wish is to be dead…
If your wish is to be dead
Seditions in Peacetime;
gotta watch what you say
Before they show up at your door and drag you away
A clear and present danger… that's so far away
While the proven guilty are sentenced to stay
Resistance to the law is put to the test
Next in line for persecution and arrest
You’re next for arrest!
Silence his screams
He’s introducing a panic
Formulating a fervor
In pursuit of the moles and spies…
Seditions in Peacetime!
Six feet under are those who’d protest
Freedoms completely restricted
Those who died… consider them blessed
