I wake from sleep and I fear. It’s like the years did not happen And clapping my hands for light Doesn’t dispel the long nights When the fights still went on And dawn didn’t erase the war For the world is at it again Men hating other men over skin And ****** is no longer a sin If it is done with flags waving.
The raving of insane rulers Revelers in hate and genocide Have again set aside the gods, The ones they swear about And shouted down all opposition Taking the position it's fine to **** And still claim the victims are godless And the murderers are good. Why don't they question any evil That doesn’t cavil at hypocrisy But jealously protects its power And rains down hour after hour Of lies and obvious obfuscations To nations powerless to stop them?
Whims of evil men should be taken As words to be shaken off, ignored As if from bored, evil childish brats, Not taking off of hats and bowing, Plowing under civil rights like weeds And laughing at the needs of the weak. Speak up before it’s too late to deny That kind of guy respectability! We still have the ability, the right. Fight so we don’t become **** Germany. Don’t let that be our national destiny.
