Downfall

Where are the innocents?
What does it matter?
What you’ve heard;
Or if it was the silent or the spoken word.
Just speak in brevity
And in sincerity;
there is much more truth
Than the hate that makes you.

If you should hear me
Just don’t presume
You will hear me pray
But there’s more than one way
Oh, there is more than one way
For us to see

It’s the beginning of zero tolerance
We’re in the age
Where the innocents
Become the lambs
Become the lambs

Where have we left our own humanity
We’re in the age
Where the innocents
Come to get slaughtered
They come to get slaughtered

Where are the innocents
Hatred’s the poison that fills our wells
Hatred is the poison that fills our veins
It spreads like a flame
It spreads in the name
It’s burning our skin
And it’s spreading again


We’re in the valley where the sleepless never dies
We find ourselves in this dome of lies
The devil holds the strongest hand
But how long do you think he can stand?

At times a black hole feels more appealing than this world we are living in.

A living fence, instilled in hatred and fear screams in contempt:
come and be slaughtered
come and be slaughtered

It’s the beginning of zero tolerance
We’re in the age
Where the innocents
Become the lambs
Become the lambs

Where have we left our own humanity
We’re in the age
Where the innocents
Come to get slaughtered
They come to get slaughtered

Are you in it for the long haul?
Are we here to kill the sun?
Are you in it for the long haul?

Where have we left our own humanity
We’re in the age
Where the innocents
Come to get slaughtered
They come to get slaughtered
