Rage against the dying of the light

by tintinw2

Head down, mouth shut told not to start up and stir the pot the kettle cool Don't act up like a fool when atrocities come to stay and still no words permitted to say then actions come to overthrow the blindfolded regulating what to know And in the peace when violence reigns and monsters shed their human remains underneath our bubbling skin we attack all of their sin For when in the temple merchants set our dear Lord Jesus quite upset and raged against with braided whip a love so strong it can't be chipped fight then with songs, hymn sand a holy fire and expose the devils inner desire laid not in the poor, the oppressed, the downtrodden but those who feast and harvest the souls of the forgotten
