i was once at peace but now i'm beyond
writhing in pain i can't hear the song
sinners cast into flames burning red
women and children flee the creeping death
treacherous kings beheading the youth
leave them to rot in a war zone of doom
unseat the leader, off with his mind
revolution is the call of our times
vegetating mass
watching him spasm and thrash
foaming at the mouth
seeped deep in the band
paraquat consuming
parasitic man
isotrope familiar
feasting on his hands
psychedelic nightmare
cannot leave it's grasp
trapped in the courtyard
sniper at my head
blast me with dignity
death to evil men
i'm up against the brick wall
and they're pumping me with lead
chains
shackled onto men
whips hit their backs
yet they march onto the end
led to water, and made to drink
workhorses pushed by corruption and greed to the brink
now watch them sink
down
desolate wasteland
ravaged by swine
abandoned, weary
brittle as a broken spine
changing in shape, it's infected
i hear the stomping of a thousand angry men
round the fire, the elders told the tale
about the day that the sun was brought down from the sky
and the creature with the center eye
created this hell
and the children began to wail
men sent to war by cowardly kings
to bring down the radioactively charged beast freed from beneath
but he laid them flat
and in his fury
melted our minds
chains
shackled onto men
whips hit their backs
yet they march onto the end
led to water, and made to drink
workhorses pushed by corruption and greed to the brink
now watch them sink
down
