๐ Lyrics
Officers played music to cover the shooting
As 16,500 were killed in a day
The next day the music moved to point that over
14,000 died
By the time the tour ended, 38,000 men, women and children had been killed
By battalion of less than 500 men
No one survives
Against hateful minds
I can feel the pressure growing
Last time you walked away
This time there will be no one there
Waiting to take your place
Think not that the world now ones you
Think not of your despair
Rise up and take their power
Do not hesitate or fear
For them, a distant memory
Waiting with bated breath
I see through parts of your life
Why do you lie to me?
One of the reasons why, the movement
Began to move executions behind prison's
Is the effect that it would have on young people
Their parents would take them to witness an execution
Thinking that perhaps it would have some salutary effect
They would hold 'em up so that they could get a good glimpse and all of that
But I found I guess 30 or 40 cases, where after witnessing an execution
A child of tender years, would hang a playmate or hang themselves
We must distrust each, other it is our best defense
From those who seek to specialize in betrayal
There's no comfort in freedom, for what we seek is pain
Your life has now come undone
I'll watch you beg for
As 16,500 were killed in a day
The next day the music moved to point that over
14,000 died
By the time the tour ended, 38,000 men, women and children had been killed
By battalion of less than 500 men
No one survives
Against hateful minds
I can feel the pressure growing
Last time you walked away
This time there will be no one there
Waiting to take your place
Think not that the world now ones you
Think not of your despair
Rise up and take their power
Do not hesitate or fear
For them, a distant memory
Waiting with bated breath
I see through parts of your life
Why do you lie to me?
One of the reasons why, the movement
Began to move executions behind prison's
Is the effect that it would have on young people
Their parents would take them to witness an execution
Thinking that perhaps it would have some salutary effect
They would hold 'em up so that they could get a good glimpse and all of that
But I found I guess 30 or 40 cases, where after witnessing an execution
A child of tender years, would hang a playmate or hang themselves
We must distrust each, other it is our best defense
From those who seek to specialize in betrayal
There's no comfort in freedom, for what we seek is pain
Your life has now come undone
I'll watch you beg for
