Liberty Complacency Dependency |
There’s a dead sky rising on the dark horizon |
With the reason and the rhyme of a hurricane |
There’s an empire falling and a future calling |
As the seasons and the times move on again |
Do we find a solutions in a constitution |
Has the reason we designed it gone away |
Do we find repentence to suspend our sentence |
Because the seasons and the times don’t want to wait |
Once there was a city left to ruin |
Alone and broken down |
The walls that once gave shelter |
Are levelled to the ground |
Powerless to cope for there was |
No-one left to trust |
Nothing there to hope for when your |
Dreams have turned to dust |
The kings are in the counting house |
They’re counting up their prize |
But all that they’ve accounted |
Is the sum of their demise |
Won’t be moved by what I see |
Anger fear and jealousy |
Losing hold of liberty |
Complacency to apathy |
Running wild on make believe |
A panacea to legacy |
Watch it flow from liberty |
To apathy dependency |
Once there was a city from the ashes |
Arising up with faith |
So eager as she rushes |
To make the same mistakes |
Our fine veneer of progress |
Only covers us so far |
It only takes a crisis |
To reveal the way we are |
The kings are in counting house |
To borrow from their foes |
The debts are only mounting |
That’s the way the money goes |
Won’t be moved by what I see |
Anger fear and jealousy |
Losing hold of liberty |
Complacency to apathy |
Running wild on make believe |
A panacea to legacy |
Watch it flow from liberty |
To apathy dependency |
Won’t be moved by what I see |
Anger fear and jealousy |
Losing hold of liberty |
Complacency to apathy |
Running wild on make believe |
A panacea to legacy |
Watch it flow from liberty |
To apathy dependency |
