There was a fight,
There was a fire
Meaningless points of view
Echoes from our last generation
We are going nowhere
Staying still through final days
Is there something else you wish to say?
-
There was a fight,
There was a fire
Empty words in hollowed heads
Singing hymns about Rust and Ruin
our city is burning
embers of our greatest days
ashen skies and broken ways again
---
We remained silent
So that our backs won’t feel the bar
---
There was a fight,
There was a fire
Purple hearts pouring down the streets
bleeding voices soaring for the voiceless
Protect their temple
vultures looking for some meat
Can’t you feel the gloaming in the clear?
---
We remained silent
So that our backs won’t feel the bar
---
We are not survivng
We are just reacting
---
We remained silent
So that our backs won’t feel the bar
---
There was a fight
There was a fire
