Until the Forge Goes Cold Lyrics

In comfort some forgot
What was done to keep us here
Drunk on former victories,
Time sanitised, context lost

Quietly they forgot,
Well we did not.

And when they asked us to kneel,
Fascism is the hand that keeps us down,
At the first sign of resistance,
The state begins to unleash the hounds.

As the wealth bled back from the colonies
And lubricates the citadels
The fascist wretch, no longer needed,
Slunk away, now out of favour.

But soon enough the rivers run dry,
We fucked the land,
We drained the wells,
The wealth, once so freely gifted,
Was recalled from working peoples hands.

Quietly they forgot,
Well we did not.

The resistance is rekindled,
The skills are all still here,
What was sleeping now awakes,
The knife still sharp after all these years
