lyrics

We don’t create tension, we bring it to the surface
stating plainly: this peace is a disservice
a negative serene, undertow in the stream
A well-oiled machine, rigidly following it’s routine

Tried the best I could, tried to hold steadfast
Hopes were brought up, then gone in a flash
A stroll down negotiations’ path,
I know things will turn back as they had been in the past far too fast

Hammering nails into the casket, my hands are calloused
head out to sea, to scatter those ashes
so many decades of damage,
don’t look back, there’s nothing left to be salvaged

We can only back out now, not fixing a thing
We can only wail out to the lord and sing
It’s fucked up beyond repair,
Drink down the despair
I haven’t seen my parents in years

Lord come down, off that cross, find all of us that are lost
Aren’t there enough crucifixions going on
And we’re still waiting for the coming of the dawn
Who will worship you if all the innocents are gone?

They say please, keep the peace
and sweep their sins beneath the carpet of our history
“can't you get back in line like the way God ordained it to be.”
the idolatry of a false unity
