Troopers invading peaceful nations, waving their country's flag. We condemn these immoral actions, but we let these effects stack. A thousand deaths today, no mathematical formula to predict tomorrow's. We don't let our emotions sway, there's no way to understand their sorrow.
Shaking our heads in disagreement when we witness war on the news. But that's all we do, then move on cause we can never walk in their shoes. Our hands are shackled, noble notions suppressed by justified fear. Hearts are clear, minds haggard, away from justice we steer.
Mothers standing at doorways, sons run the streets with AKs from fallen soldiers. Fathers run the streets looking for their sons with AKs from fallen soldiers. Mothers standing at the graves, of daughters who were bombed in their sleep. They will stand at cemeteries filled with families and then it's vengeance that they seek.
Mortar shells decorated the cities, armies on killing sprees. Citizens starving, and bullets filled their stomach brutally. Children thirsty, had their fill from their mothers' lacrimal sac. Scavengers scavenged on, survival riding on their backs.
I could protest purposely, anti-propaganda policies on picket signs. I could rally a demonstration, but I know I will be the only one in line. Jail journeys insufficient for the ****** and rotten, houses wrecked and families broken. So don't blame me, cause my faith in us is lost, we are a lost cause, these monstrosities will never ever be forgotten.
