Lyrics
The Locust
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What's been designated as modern sovereignty is merely a pageantry of dollar bills and inane flags. scrutinize, it's clear as day, ascendancy has no restriction when it's underlain by military.
Is this what you wanted?
Is this how you hoped it would be?
Is this what you wanted- an inevitable entropy?
Castigation course those who sinned against god's holy state. the children screamed as the bombs fell from the sky.
All in the name of a fabricated crusade, i deem as frippery, most commonly referred to as the manifest destiny.
Shrouds of paranoia overwhelm the anxious city streets. it brings about a state of systematic dependency. much like a locust, it eats away at all of our emotions until there's nothing left but animosity.
Think for just one second- give some genuine thought. generations of onslaught, pennants defiled with blood. in the name of god, country and the right to bear arms: an idle prospect for the obstructive nature of mind.
Is this what you wanted?
Is this how you hoped it would be?
Is this what you wanted- an inevitable entropy?
…history repeats.
