Simple but so cruel Like caging an eagle The lessons still unlearned And blood ties unspoken The poison they're preaching Can't stop your reaching For answers, a way through When your dreams betray you Digging our trenches where the blood and bones Will splinter and spill Every resistance will be overthrown Let none survive our brave solution Open the ground and swallow us whole No-one is innocent Chase all the children from this mortal coil No-one is innocent Sacred and bleeding Drown out the screaming Hollow the feeling Destruction careening Nurtured in silence Devotion so violent Abandoned all reason To prosper in treason Open the ground and swallow us whole No-one is innocent Chase all the children from this mortal coil No-one is innocent Pride of the mighty comes with a fall No-one is innocent Until every heathen head's on a pole No-one is innocent You say it's unspeakable But we say it's magical You call it tragedy When it's merely destiny The victors write history It's been a hell of a ride Too bad you were on the wrong side Now enjoy as the lights go out Let your d**h leave no more doubt
