The Red and the Black - Burn It Down

I've seen the world through old sunken eyes
Plague and war, humans squashed like flies
Red rivers shores open wide
Swallow up society in time
Famines, riots, political spies
Watch regime death tolls arise
Men of power spouting sordid lies
Wolves found in friendly disguise

Say it all out loud
Scream and shout
Say it all out loud
Burn it down

I've seen wars extend west to east
Soldiers fight to just feed the beast
Father, son, and holy priest
Singing hymns to rising deceased
Resistance bought and then its policed
This lands not owned its only just leased
Chaos out on a city street
Politicians not concerned in the least

Say it all out loud
Scream and shout
Say it all out loud
Burn it down
