I went looking for revenge
I only found the edge
Of good and evil
Teetering on the steeple
What side will it fall?
That's anybody's call
The victorious write the history
So moral is pointless, the loser is the enemy
But how often does victory align with the righteous?
Glory is told despite this
The innocent pay the price
Propaganda paints it nice
And the average can sleep easy
But what's that mean for you and me?
Simply put we all fall in line
Regardless if yours starts or ends in a different place than mine
