A Fragile Peace - The Famine[00:00:00]
A grinding narrative set on a razor's edge the culmination of a lifetime [00:00:03]
It stutters to a stop then crumbles into ruins bones held up by wire [00:00:13]
You don't put the gun in your mouth because you like the way that it tastes [00:00:23]
It's a testament to the will of man and the progress we have made [00:00:31]
A debt we all must pay bit by bit by agonizing pieces of ourselves [00:00:40]
To warlords and profiteers all huddled in dark masses xenophobes and killers [00:00:44]
Bone soaked in blurry tears the matted grey of ashes a liturgy on our failings [00:00:53]
Choke down a Eucharist of flesh and tinny blood to find a fragile fleeting peace [00:01:03]
You don't put the gun in your mouth because you like the way that it tastes [00:01:20]
It's a testament to the will of man and the progress we have made [00:01:27]
In a sense we've done our best to lay it all to waste [00:01:36]
So cavalier and so secure dressed in our Sunday finest [00:01:44]
A debt we all must pay bit by bit by agonizing pieces of ourselves [00:01:53]
To warlords and profiteers all huddled in dark masses xenophobes and killers [00:01:58]
Commercialized regret manufactured in the falsest pretense of sorrow [00:02:05]
"Those wretched fools " you'll think "All huddled in dark masses ripe for the taking "[00:02:18]
Sycophants and slaves [00:02:26]
Crawl back from whence you came tormentors Lie in the bed that you have made [00:02:51]
Suffer the fools in silence [00:03:06]
Let your actions speak for themselves because actions speak for themselves [00:03:12]
A grinding narrative set on a razor's edge the culmination of a lifetime[00:03:33]
