Sentinel |
Can we say that we are free? |
Our hands are bound and voices silent |
I’m sure it’s not a dream |
I am awake my eyes are open |
I can’t accept and won’t concede |
In aftermath we find redemption |
The causes that are seized |
And disguised as revolution |
Quell the rage that deeply seethes |
The extremes of these devotions |
Dismantle the machine |
The device of their creation |
I can’t accept and won’t concede |
That this is who we are |
The causes that are seized |
And disguised as greater notions |
To the songs that sing of glory and the brave |
Are we dreaming there are better days to come? |
When will the banners and the victory parades |
Celebrate the day a better world was won? |
On the day |
The storm has just begun |
I will still hope |
There are better days to come |
In the face of what I say |
My words return to anger |
Malevolence in need |
Cannot provide direction |
I won’t accept this thought |
That this is who we are |
Positions never change |
Losing all forward motion |
Harbour that which deeply seethes |
Temper your devotion |
Dismantle the machine |
The device of your convictions |
I can’t accept and won’t concede |
That this is who we are |
The conflict that is seized |
And disguised as greater notions |
To the songs that sing of glory and the brave |
Are we dreaming there are better days to come? |
When will the banners and the victory parades |
Celebrate the day a better world was won? |
To the songs that sing of the glory and the brave |
Are we dreaming there are better days to come? |
When will the banners and the victory parades |
Celebrate the day a better world was won? |
On the day the storm has just begun |
I will still hope there are better days to come |
On the day the storm has just begun |
I will still hope there are better days to come |
