Perilous Nation |
Bold is the one who dares to say what he feels |
Renegation man, to one he yields |
The bleeding hearts and empty minds, hiding words they fear |
Blind is the one who censors what we see and hear |
Come into my world and take a journey with me |
Paint me a portrait now, of the things you see |
Men are poor and lost in war of ideology |
No solution will prevail unless we can be |
Free of anger, free of pain |
Free of hatred that we obtain |
Tell me what this place was meant to be |
Can you see? |
Can you see what it does to me? |
Can you hear? |
Can you read? |
Can you see what it did to me! |
Totalitarians in a Perilous Nation |
Forcing through control turns, to desolation |
Listen to the leader speak, he’s your only friend |
Take a stand in the motherland, take it to the end |
Say now what you will, before they make it illegal |
Time to draw the line, between the bad and the evil |
Distant times had friendly rules, became its deadliest foe |
We have heard it all before, the morals come and go |
Men are poor and lost in war of ideology |
No solution will prevail unless we can be |
Free of anger, free of pain |
Free of hatred that we obtain |
Tell me what this place was meant to be |
Free of anger, free of pain |
Free of hatred that we obtain |
Tell me what this place was meant to be |
Can you see? |
Can you see what it does to me? |
Can you hear? |
Can you read? |
Can you see what it did to me, can you hear? |
Can you read? |
Can you see what it did to me |
Can you hear? |
Can you read? |
Can you see what it did to me… |
