Subservience

Endless Struggles, Lives are worn
Unseen victory, sanctity was sworn
Lives come undone, mislead devotion
The elation of our lives
nothing more than a fading memory
how did we let it get to this
Iron fists of power reign
show no mercy, have no soul
menacing hearts devour the weak
These sentiments undone
when time stands still
our hearts will beat as one
rulers seen as a deity
a man with the charm
rabid with supremacy
painful cries of clemency help us none
absent minded to the obvious
if your hands are red
then so are mine
we all want salvation
when we're confined
