Lyrics Divide - Jeff Williams

Divide

Does it feel good knowing you tried?
Knowing that all that remains
Is the slow, cold, brutal death
Of the fools that will all die in vain?
How does it feel
Knowing your efforts will fail?
All that you’ve built will be torn down
The hope of your people assailed
Send your guardians, they will fail
Legends and heroes will crumble and fall
You will not prevail
When allied together, a threat men display
Divide them with doubt, it will all wash away
One spark can incite their hope
And ignite the hearts of their weary souls
I will extinguish that flame
Form your armies, dream your dreams
Make your plans and plot your schemes
Send your fighters one and all
Then in battle, watch them fall
It was you who ended their lives
Made them to dig their own graves
With your dark, sick, cruel design
Convinced them their world could be saved
Have you no shame
Signing them up for your war?
Train them to fight what they can’t beat
Your sins are what they’ll pay for
Sacrifice them for your needs
Slaughter is coming, the end drawing near
You’ll regret your deeds
Legends and fairy tales scattered in time
Maidens and kingdoms wrapped up in a lie
These children you mislead
You’ll watch them all bleed
Strength will not bring victory
Divide them
Tear them apart
Sever their trust, it will strangle their hearts
Inside them
Plant seeds of doubt
Hope will be smothered
They’ll turn on each other
Hatred will sprout
Suspicion and doubt
Friendships deny while allegiances die
The taste will be sweet when you get what you’ve earned
And I’ll watch you burn
