Counting Down The Days
The Human Abstract
Who are you, what have you become?
A charming illusion, a source of confusion
Another day and you'll win the race
A charming illusion, a source of confusion
Who are you, what have you become?
A charming illusion, a source of confusion
Another day and you'll find your place
A charming illusion, a source of confusion
Another rise to power, no matter who or when
And we will know of our freedom never again, never again
A common thread of distance in the hearts of men
And we'll have love for our brothers never again
We are all the victims of a will to overcome
A will to overcome
How far we've gone out of touch?
There's no right side of war, there's no right side of war
You can't justify it
There's no right side of war, there's no right side of war
To erase away all that we've become
They can't see we're all one
A voice cries from underneath
Dark shepherds strongly though you wield the staff
You're weakened by comfort
There's no way you're prepared for what happens last
Action, reaction, like an eye for an eye from our tribal days
The lesser ones demand reaction
Dare to challenge the one universal law
Set you up to fall, Do you understand now?
Why your days are numbered?
The course of events were a riddle, a pause in time
A search for the solution as we stood in line
Honored our oppressors and paid our fines
Then all became clear as the ferocity inside began
To hear the drums of war resound across the land
Announcing the fate to shed blood upon the earth, it is ours!
Doomed to repeat our history
There is more than one path to how things could be
No time to question how when or why
We simply come together or die
To a system of capitalist politicians, false face of a greater power
Your empire will fall, bringing about the end of an era
Warmongers, your bloodlust to conquer turn the moments
Of our lives into a ticking time bomb of your own creation
Counting down the days, rot in your graves!
There's no right side of war
To erase away all we've become, to erase away all that we love
