Kyshera - Messiah Mask lyrics

Messiah Mask By Kyshera Words by James Kennedy It's hell on earth behind the Cellophane glare Our supermarket democracy is painted on torture and slavery A million severed hands clutching Ballot cards Where the starving live amongst ashes and sewerage And there's a factory there, upon the shackled corpses And a million more guns whenever the white man comes This is what they call liberty This is what they call prosperity This is what they call security This is what they call democracy Imperialism in a Messiah mask You better pray 'cos God has spoken With Cluster bombs and Napalm B And his d**h squads are everywhere Hacking and burning and shooting and raping and beating With no infrastructure left He's got a deal you must accept Sitting in s**t for 36 hours With no air, no water, no food, no pay, no rest Making useless sh** 'cos the debt slaves keep on buying it While they're helpless as they watch their children die An agonising d**h of preventable illness that they can't afford to cure Welcome to civilisation Where a dollars more valued than a life Where the oil pi**es through the shanty towns Washing away the carca**es of ma**acred families whose homes were in the way All those pretty packaged things Don't they look so innocent They bring horror and desolation To any nation that cannot defend itself And everybody here is free Of any responsibility The companies that blame the politicians That blame the market that blames consumers that blame the...
