Politically Driven Screamers

Heavy artillery rains down from the sky
The stranger with a seductive eye
The sea rises, the rain inflamed with red
We watch as our brothers fall down dead
Everyone knows modern chaos exists
Take a look at our faith and politics
I watch you dance on my ticking time bomb
My name yelled out on the broken intercom
My life told through misdemeanors and crime
Packed into twenty seconds on local prime time
A court case and a suicide note
Poison has always been my chosen antidote
I set up my collection of disturbing dolls
Why couldn't I follow the simple protocols?
The eight chess pieces that connect our fate
All the drugs that they use to sedate
To make us forget about revolution
To force us out of evolution
Filing systems to sort out our lies
The murder that they authorize
Sticky notes in metal trashcans
Into our arms they carve their brands
A civilian marching under a flag
A gallon of oil is their price tag
Into this microphone I scream
Trying to get back our lost dream
I want anarchy in the street
Then I'll know we've made a defeat
On every street corner, the underdog will rise
To sing the country to sleep with their angry lullabies
The administration will run from the newfound truth
That they've attempted the corruption of America's youth
But we're still here and we will fight
We have the confidence to know we are right
The world was auctioned off by one man
He gave away the rights to his band
Spread the crumbs on the sidewalk
Whispers are the new way to talk
Waves of water drench the city
The dripping flames showed no pity
All we know turns to dust
Everything burns in the city of lust
There's no one left who could deliver
Our tears form into a faithful river
The ground is littered with locks and chains
What you see is all that remains
Known only through my mistakes
All of the lovers, all of the fakes
I think we have the right to be pissed
In the end, we're the ones who'll be missed
