World War III

Verse 1
War
The constant reminder that we have all failed
The endless conflict for the sake of a cent
The only thing left that makes any sense
The world has been darkened, our fates left unknown
The rich taking more than we could ever know
Our lives brought to ruin at the flip of a switch
We stand here in silence while their plans go without a hitch
Pre-chorus
The bombs are exploding
The people imploding
This world that we live is is nothing but greed Just left out to die
And there’s nowhere to hide
From the monster that’s haunting me
Chorus
The politicians are all covered in green People are dying under fascist regime They say they protect us to keep us all free Now watch as we all enter World War III
Verse 2
The suicide of our society
Depends on a race war and bigotry Stripped of our rights and hung out to dry Living our life until it’s our turn to fucking die
Bridge
If 98% of the worlds wealth is controlled by 2% of the population, then how am I supposed to make a fucking living working my fingers to the bone while the rich live in luxury? If dodging taxes is a felony, and 10% of the world lives in poverty, then what the fuck can we do to make the world better for the people who live in it?
Eat the fucking rich

Verse 1:
I can’t escape
I have been down this road before What do you want from me
To show that I don’t want this war After all this time
Haven’t given up on crusades yet Why won’t you answer me
What are we fighting for?
Pre-Chorus 1:
You’ll send us to die With no reason why Why is heaven so far? Hells’ on top of us
Chorus 1:
No this can’t be the first time
You’ve been thrown out as scum This kind of game that you play here It only makes us numb
Verse 2:
There’s no escape
All these nations fractured at their roots How do I prove to you
These wars are all designed to lose
Pre-Chorus 2:
We hang by a thread Just ready to cut
It’s time for you to fall Become one of us
Chorus 2:
No this can’t be the first time
You’ve been thrown out as scum This kind of game that you play here It only makes us numb
You’ll always be a part of me
But your time has come
Bridge:
When information is gold
But at our fingertips
Your constant need for control Will wake another beast
His eyes are opening
His teeth are sharpening
Your time is shortening
Losing your grip on the world So have it your way
Already used to abuse
Let’s have it your way
With you there’s nothing to lose
Pre-Chorus 2:
We hang by a thread Just ready to cut
It’s time for you to fall Become one of us
Chorus 3:
No this can’t be the first time
You’ve been thrown out as scum You’ll always be a part of me But your time has come
Outro 1:
No this can’t be the first time
You’ve been thrown out as scum This kind of game that you play here It only makes us numb
Outro 2:
So have it your way
(Already used to abuse)
Let’s have it your way
(With you there’s nothing to lose) X3

Right To Refrain Silence

Verse:
Why can’t I escape your hypocrisy
Where the meaning to life is what you decree Left me out on my own in your hostility
Say that these are my rights and then assault me
Pre-Chorus:
These words that you spew out are rotting my brain Filled with a poison to flow through our veins
Your time in control will eventually end
Matter of time until they call for your head
Verse 2:
This situation is born from your apathy Unable to be called on your bullshit
Our Justice for All is now in atrophy
Keep beating us down but we won’t submit
Pre-Chorus 2:
Our days of surrender are nearing an end
The crimes you’ve committed will not have amends You’ve made it quite clear that you don’t give a shit Of who lives or dies, only who you acquit
Chorus:
United we stand
Divided they fall
Until our last breath escapes us We’ll take our liberty
Today they reign
Tonight they burn
Until our death consumes us We can’t go quietly
Bridge:
This can’t be happening
Your cries are music to my ears
In the streets we’re battling
Conjuring our deepest fears
You barricade our streets
And then scream and wail when we fight against tyranny Nation built on protesting Marquis
But you sure fucking hate it when we take back our streets
Verse 3:
Why can’t I escape your hypocrisy
Where the meaning to life is what you decree Left me out on my own in your hostility
Say that these are my rights and then assault me
Pre-Chorus:
These words that you spew out are rotting my brain Filled with a poison to flow through our veins
Your time in control will eventually end
Matter of time until they call for your head
Chorus:
United we stand
Divided they fall
Until our last breath escapes us We’ll take our liberty
Today they reign
Tonight they burn
Until our death consumes us We can’t go quietly

Intro:
What exactly happened to make you turn a blind eye
How can you show apathy when those around you die
They called it insurrection as they shoved us to our knees
The bullet in my back screams that we cannot keep the peace
Verse 1:
How can it be
With all these screams
Has evil really gotten the best of me What will it take
I cannot break
It’s time to end the cycle of all this hate How did we even get here
I thought we all wanted more
How about you just disappeared
It’s time to settle the score
Pre-chorus:
You won’t get the best of me I won’t stoop that low
Do you even hear the screams? These were the seeds you sowed
Pre-Chorus 2:
Anarchy fighting Tyranny You call it felony
But we will burn you down Jealousy producing zealotry Modern day leprosy
And there is no way out
Chorus:
Our backs will break under all this weight with all these lies you will devastate
Now take a moment and think this through Of what history will tell of you
The time has gone for us to wait
Under all these lives you will suffocate ideals of life eternally flawed
But you’ll be struck down so help me god
Verse 2:
Why can’t we free ourselves from all of this mess This was why we fought wars
What ever happened to all of the dreams we had Why can’t we achieve more?
Pre-chorus:
You won’t get the best of me
I won’t stoop that low
Do you even hear the screams? These were the seeds you sowed
Pre-Chorus 2:
Anarchy fighting Tyranny You call it felony
But we will burn you down Jealousy producing zealotry Modern day leprosy
And there is no way out

Our backs will break under all this weight with all these lies you will devastate

Verse 1
One day
The doors will lift to provide us escape
One day
The chains will drop and we will not be pushed away The time will come when our enemies breath their last The air turns stale and the fight will commence
In the past we were driven back to our holes
Today we stand as we start fighting like hell again
Chorus:
This is the start of a war
There’s no turning back
I fear we’ve been here before We will not fade to black
Verse 2
One day
We’ll dig ourselves out from all of the mess you’ve made One day
We’ll prove to you that we did not need you to stay
You dug your grave now step down into your new home The screams cry out as the hammer of justice falls
So tell me now, what did you think would come of this? Tomorrow we will see dawn; you will go burn in it
Chorus 2:
This is the start of a war There’s no turning back
I fear we’ve been here before We will not fade to black
This is the start of a war
Now we begin our attack
Let’s see what we have in store We will not fade to black
This is the start of a war This is the start of a war

Verse 1:
I feel like I’m going insane
These visions you left me are burned in my brain And when I ask who is to blame
Your fingers are pointed the opposite way
What have we done? Where do we go?
Have we not learned from the sins of the past It’s always the same, day after day
Now here is the bill that we need you to pay
Pre-Chorus:
We’re fighting for more than we know
The cries of the innocent scream out and shout The time for our voices is now
So stand up and give them no reason to doubt
Chorus 1:
This is a Revolution
So get down on your knees There is no Substitution
For how you need to appease
Verse 2:
We’re being shoved into a cage
Following blindly into the abyss
Suppression will come to an end
We’re not just a resource for you to finesse
You force us to stay, for minimal pay
What happens when profits decide not to work? The choices you made, have dug your own grave. Now watch as your world goes to state of decay
Pre-chorus
Chorus 2:
It’s a Revolution
So get down on your knees There is no substitution
For how you need to appease It’s time for execution
In the Land of the Free
Verse 3:
I feel like I’m going insane
Your time in control of this world has grown old
Now watch as your currency burns
And think of the lives you have crushed out and sold
Pre-Chorus

Verse 1:
There’s no forgetting the past Mistakes of lives from before There’s no forgiving the pain It’s time to settle the score
It’s time for debts to come due Your fortune crumbling down I’m taking far too much pride In watching all of you drown
Pre Chorus:
So take a good look around We’re not running away
Don’t give a fuck what you heard This will be our new day
Verse 2:
There’s no more time to resist
The damage already done
Your enemies from the past
Will bring the wrath of the sun
The day our forces push through
Past your systemic defense
We’ll let them rush through your doors And let the burning commence
Pre Chorus:
So take a good look around We’re not running away
Don’t give a fuck what you heard This will be our new day
Chorus:
Can’t you see that you’re losing ground This whole world will push back
Walk away from your bloodied throne Before we drag you away
Verse 3
Their victory’s at hand
The final blow has been dealt Entire kingdoms will burn
And all your gold will melt
And as we stand here with pride With fire in our eyes
After all we have lost
Your death is our prize
Pre Chorus:
So take a good look around We’re not running away
Don’t give a fuck what you heard This will be our new day
Chorus:
Can’t you see that you’re losing ground This whole world will push back
Walk away from your bloodied throne Before we drag you away
