Casus Belli

Seeing the growth of the frightening suffering
 Pain puts on claws, we're streaming westward in disarray
 Dragging a dead man's greatcoat over onto my soul
 Falling into a deep sleep waiting for silent times

 Recommendations in a dying world
 See the terror and hatred unfurl
 Stern display of the horror show
 The sight is the same wherever you go

 Frame of mind is taking lives
 It cannot be altered
 The misdeed of strangers
 Inflaming the giants

 Groaning bodies are dressing wounds
 We're the sideshow to the main event
 Giving injections to infinity
 Casus belli; they will not repent... their sins

 Leaving the dead in the rear of my tangled dreams
 Oncoming fever fills my body with twisted thoughts
 Standing on top of hell, watching the men who fell
 Forces of pain take on a new and alarming face

 Gloomy foundations are all that remains
 Fortifications brought to disarray 
 Representations of a failing race
 Disintegration and permanent wounds
 Frame of mind is taking lives
 It cannot be altered
 The misdeed of strangers
 Inflaming the giants

 Groaning bodies are dressing wounds
 We're the sideshow to the main event
 Giving injections to infinity
 Casus belli; they will not repent... their sins

 Overlord, vanguard of secrets
 The answers out of reach now
 Vainglory right before my eyes... keep drivelling on

 Semi-zombies bound to throttle
 Opinion makers' nightmare
 Activity deep in the night... political sham fight
 Tell me how and we shall conquer
 The bloc will rule no longer
 They are supremely insecure...in a world of wreckage

 Safeguard, rampart, shattered backbone
 Revenge in gesture of kindness
 Attention to the plight of prisoners... stunned to disbelief
