Lyrics
The Hand of Righteous Hate
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.
No greater evil than the hand of righteous hate
Felonious intent. Doubtful morality
Unyielding ethical decisions that will rule our lives
Can we redress shadows of our past?
Knowledge dispels fear until you know the truth in lies
Banning freedom of "whatever they oppose"
Unilateral democracy through martial law
Saving sycophants while the unworthy die
Holy contempt for those who question what's wrong or Right
Are we destined to repeat atrocities?
Recurring ignorance in a new guise
Hate still hate. No matter what the hype
Illegal wars will be just in the history that you write
(Chorus):
Who are the enemies you seek?
Why is it treason to have a different view?
And when there's no-one left to blame
Who will you persecute?
Delusions. Flawed logic proven
Misinformation spurs the malcontent in frightened minds
Global governance. Puerile politics.
Blessed mandate to discriminate and marginalize
Ineffectual intellectuals
Unravel propaganda taut as the Gordian Knot
One nation with no common God
What would it mean to find that we were ALL wrong?
(Chorus):
Where are these enemies you seek?
And when the mission's at an end
What will be your legacy?
Liberation of the dead
Misanthropic
Philanthropy
Killing for peace
Hypocrisy
Selfish demagogue
Criminal arrogance
Who protects us
From your menace?
Citizens suffer
Too dead to die
Under your flag
The end is nigh
No greater evil than the hand of righteous hate
