Fog Of War

WE AWOKE TO THE SMELL OF SMOKE
GUNFIRE RANG OUT AS THE SOLDIERS MARCHED FORWARD
A DEATH KNELL IN UNISON
A COLD BLOODED REGIMENT
THE HELL IN WHICH WE WERE BORN
NO SUNRISE TO GREET US
JUST THE FOG WAR
A FATE WE NEVER ASKED FOR
RAPE MURDER TORTURE
SUCH ACTS THE “WEST” WILL QUICKLY DEPLORE
THESE ARE OUR EVERYDAY LIVES
WE AWOKE TO THE SMOKE
BULLET HOLES, MARCHING BOOTS
THE BLOOD OF THE YOUTH
STAINS THE HOLIEST SOIL
VICTIM OR VICTOR
FOREVER THE SPOILS
THIS HELL IS YOUR HEADLINE
SAFE FROM HARM
FREE FROM BLAME
THIS HELL IS YOUR HEADLINE
THIS HELL IS OUR HOME

ALL LIFE RETURNS TO DUST
THE EARTH AND ASH FROM WHICH YOU CAME
SWALLOWED WHOLE
BELOW THE SOIL
DEGRADATION & ABUSE LEAD US TO THIS
AN EARLY OPEN GRAVE
FOR MODERN MAN’S MISTAKES
THE JAWS OF THE EARTH OPENED UP
AND THE ASPHALT WAS CONSUMED
HOMES WERE SWALLOWED
A CHASM NOW STANDS WHERE YOUR LIFE ONCE STOOD
WE IGNORED THE WARNING SIGNS
WROTE THE FACTS OF AS BULLSHIT
CONDEMNED SCIENCE AS LIES
AND NOW WE’RE FUCKED
SO TELL ME WHAT’S HARDER TO SWALLOW
THE TRUTH OR YOUR PRIDE?

Concurrent Deaths

TWO SEPARATE CRISIS
FOUGHT ON TWO DIFFERENT FRONTS
THE RICH GAG ON GREED
THE POOR CHOKE ON DUST
WESTERN TROUGH FILLED TO THE BRIM
A WASH WITH BLOOD
OVERPRODUCTION
WASTE IN ABUNDANCE
NEGLIGENT INHERITANCE
BEST BEFORE DEATH
USED BY ALL
COMMODIFY BLOOD AND SOIL
TARIFFS IN PLACE
TO REAP ALL THE TOIL
SYSTEM DESIGNED
TO KEEP YOU IN LINE
WHERE YOU WERE BORN
IS WHERE YOU WILL DIE CONCURRENT DEATHS

SOCIALITE MEDIA
AT IT’S FINEST
BREATHE IT IN
SPECIMENS IN NEED OF LOVE
STOMACH SWELLS
FOR DIGESTION
HOW MUCH SHIT CAN YOU SWALLOW?
SPECIMENS IN NEED
IN NEED OF HOPE
MANDATORY CRIES
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
INACTIVISTISM
THREE SYLLABLE DIATRIBE
CLICK OF BUTTON
CONSCIENCE IS CLEAR
YOUR NEW DIET IS,
PALATABLE HISTORY

WE’RE COUNTING THE BOOKS
WHILE THE LIBRARY BURNS
LIFE RIPPED
FROM NATURE
CONVENIENTLY PLACED
IN READY-MADE URNS
MAN MADE
MONUMENTS TO
DEVASTATION
HUMBLE REMINDERS
OF LIVES LOST FOREVER
GENERALISED GENOCIDE
NATURAL WORLD
REDEFINED
WE’RE ON THE CUSP
OF THE NEXT
GREAT
EXTINCTION
WE KICK THE DUST
IN THE BLOODIED EYES OF THE EARTH
OH YOU’RE NOT TO BLAME?
WRONG AGAIN
MOTHERFUCKER
WE’RE ALL
ALL TO BLAME
IF GIA HANGS
FROM THE GALLOWS
OUR FUCKING HEADS SHOULD HANG IN SHAME
WE’RE COUNTING THE BOOKS
WHILE THE LIBRARY BURNS
A MONUMENT TO DEVASTATION

INSTIGATE THE WITCH HUNT
WHO CAN WE, STITCH UP TODAY?
WHO'S POINT OF VIEW CAN WE CORRUPT?
FOR THE SAKE OF SAVING FACE, FOR THE SAKE OF SAVING GRACE
WATCH ME IMPRESS, MY FLOCK OF FRIENDS,
WATCH ME DISSECT THIS CATCH PHRASE TREND
MISCONSTRUED
CONTEXT IGNORED
SAME OLD FASHIONED RHETORIC
FUCK
DON'T YOU ALL GET SO BORED OF
ADDING YOUR MONEY'S WORTH FOR A CAUSE,
THAT ISN'T YOURS?
IT MUST BE SO EXHAUSTING BEING YOU
IT MUST BE SO DEPRESSING,
BEING OFFENDED BY AN OPPOSING POINT OF VIEW
WHITE KNIGHTS, WHITE KNIGHTS, WHITE KNIGHTS
CORRECTNESS NOW A CONTEST
JUST TAKE THIS OUT OF CONTEXT
FUCK YOU

STRUNG OUT AND BLED OUT, BOUGHT AND SOLD
BORROWED, BLUE AND BATTERED COLD
MATRIMONY OF BLOODY MONEY,
STAINED IN RED UNTIL WE’RE DEAD
PILE IT HIGH
MR BUSINESSMAN,
THAT PINSTRIPE SUIT,
WOULD LOOK SO MUCH BETTER,
ON YOUR PRISON FLOOR
RESIGNATION NAILED, TO YOUR COFFIN DOOR
CASH FOR COMMENTS ON THINGS NEVER EARNED
IN DEBT FOR DEBT, IN DEBT FOR LIFE,
IN DEPTH LESSONS GO UNLEARNED
I THOUGHT I HAD IT ALL
WITH THE PAPER IN MY HANDS
