To Build an End
Father, where did I go wrong? How can I wonder How can I be strong? When every day I live my mother's words And breathe her sacred air Father, what have I become? Bitter reality Has made me numb When brother bled for a cry They left him here to die But I don't see through blinded eyes Why then am I so hated by myself For questioning your power? Father, do you heal or do you lie? Will I live this hеll or will I die? No more regrеt to disapprove In good we rust Leave the sick to die Every face has turned to grey And floods my wasted animosity With visions of a better place beyond This sermon of contempt When I die Who will bear the shame? What's wrong in a world of gods? So hard to Share each other's blame When everyone's truth is no one's right No more regret to disapprove In god we rust Leave the sick to die God heals

Waves The laughing earth will swallow What is real? The hand that wipes my face So soon to feel My desperate cry Wake up A world that gives me shelter Feeds me warmth Through a world of blind decay A world of storm Will help me to die Mother hold me in your arms Stranger came, now the hate is gone Weeping through a plastic head They should have killed me while I was still dead We came We looked We saw We turned Our voices built the walls that burned But the walls will build themselves again We greet the pain with open arms Into our lungs An air of passive hatred Not for ourselves But what we leave behind The shell is real Between us understanding Through us, someday The child will smile to pain When all that we share are each other's lies This god is dead No opinion Too many scars To pierce the doom, to scathe the black The scattered holes My shadow, dripping down my back You don't know me In silence, pain is deafening No way out See The rain will fall The storm will never pass When hope will call The smile will never last Discourage, insult Breathe And a laughing world Will spit back in my face Each passing dawn brings feelings To disgrace My sickening pulse Mother hold me in your arms Stranger came, now the hate is gone Weeping through a plastic head They should have killed me while I was still dead We came We looked We saw We turned Our voices built the walls that burned But the walls will build themselves again We greet the pain with open arms Into our lungs An air of passive hatred Not for ourselves But what we leave behind The shell is real Between us understanding Through us, someday The child will smile to pain When all that we share are each other's lies This god is dead No opinion Too many scars To pierce the doom, to scathe the black The scattered holes My shadow, dripping down my back You don't know me In silence, pain is deafening No way out Still The screaming void within Its bleeding chain A true existence leaves and endless pain A thorn in my back Wake up As I grow into nothing Voices crawl If someday I should heal The broken wall Who sheltered the black? Mother hold me in your arms Stranger came, now the hate is gone Weeping through a plastic head They should have killed me while I was still dead We came We looked We saw We turned Our voices built the walls that burned But the walls will build themselves again We greet the pain with open arms Into our lungs An air of passive hatred Not for ourselves But what we leave behind The shell is real Between us understanding Through us, someday The child will smile to pain When all that we share are each other's lies This god is dead No opinion Too many scars To pierce the doom, to scathe the black The scattered holes My shadow, dripping down my back You don't know me In silence, pain is deafening No way out From behind the mirror, I see The painless face Of God

What's our motive to ruin life? What can the future hold? With industries bent on destruction What will remain when I'm old? Can't see past our selfish greed And what could be, has been sold A delicate balance has been thrown Dice of fate have been rolled Laid to waste, oceans and trees Can't be replaced by hopes or pleas Earth defaced, what happens now? Life erased, wondering how Another problem Plagued by good intentions To greet the unborn slave Of this indifferent chain You are what I make Whеre do you think garbage goes? You'vе thrown out all you can You're seeing the consequences No cure for beast or man Who points the finger of blame? Who's guilty as well? Wholesale decimation Of all things we can sell! Laid to waste, oceans and trees Can't be replaced by hopes or pleas Earth defaced, what happens now? Life erased, wondering how I look in desperation What led us to this state? The dirty god we make So harmless, we pretend When all the god we save Is used to build an end

Here's to you, America Build the toys that make us blind Here's to you, O' Canada Turn your back and fake a smile Words are being swallowed Only trust to follow Who can build a bigger gun Segregate the spite To if I'm black or white Or who can love a better god Shake my hand And we'll pretend That we can live together in the same world A kiss goodbye A hand on my shoulder Not one misguided tear to cry Suffer for your innocence Praise the voice that fills your head How can we live with ourselves Sleeping in a plastic bed? So join your hands and sing We'll share the agony Together fade into the void Smile to hopeless failure Ode to Mother Nature Laugh as we learn to destroy Shake my hand And we'll pretend That we can live together in the same world A kiss goodbye A hand on my shoulder Not one misguided tear to cry Not one misguided tear to cry Suffocate your fellow pawn Waste your time and take a stand With our blood, we paint the dawn And feed it with our children's hands Nothing left to kill for Through our eyes we died for What was right or what was wrong Nothing left to hate Except the hope we fake In mindless thought, the pain is gone An early frost will fall today It's Christmas time forever now Gather 'round the tree And burn your flags To scorn the pride That served your wealth Which brought the gifts That gave you life To mock the pain For love of greed To pick the scab That made us bleed To build a future with the wind Laughing in our face

The candidates are here again We'll elect another Jesus Christ, I feel so ignorant Paint a smile and sell me freedom Feeding off our insecurities Shave my head and join the army To kill for education, die for the flag Wash my feet with your holy water Then turn your back and rape my daughter Spit on the open sore of society We don't see eye to eye No truth behind the lie Give up and close your mind Lies made to win our trust Scrutiny reveals the slander Insulting our intelligence Vote either way, 'cause it won't matter Leave me alone, I don't need your promises Futile laws, financial losses I love your swollen, nationalistic head Breathing scorn and indignation To blinded misery and starvation Patriotic waste will soon be dead We don't see eye to eye No truth behind the lie Give up and close your mind Dress me in a clown suit Then give the order to kill a stranger If I finally make it home Pin medals on me for my murders Kindling the fire of hatred Die instead of being fed Rally 'round the flag and grab your gun Steal our freedom to preserve it Preaching killing from your pulpit Close-minded bigotry that leaves me dead We don't see eye to eye No truth behind the lie Give up and close your mind
