Suppression of Faith
No lyrics have been submitted for this track yet.
I know it don't belong to the flag of my country<br/> I squirm and itch 'cos I don't fit this democracy<br/> Where I live is like a foreign soil to me<br/> My heart and soul is back in '33<br/> <br/> The air I breathe is impure and diseased<br/> The streets I walk are overcrowded and unclean<br/> A so called better world I just cannot see<br/> My heart and soul is back in '33<br/> <br/> Like the kings new clothes only fools can see<br/> The eye of the beholder can be tamed by<br/> The eye of the beholder can be trained by greed<br/> Tell a lie often enough and it'll be believed<br/> Keep life fast and tough, no time to stop and see<br/> This suppression of faith!<br/> <br/> Nothing much in common with the sheeple that I meet<br/> Don't understand their lack of values or morality<br/> I'm living in a world where man has been machined<br/> Oh, take me heart and soul back to 1933<br/> <br/> Like the kings new clothes only fools can see<br/> The eye of the beholder can be tamed by<br/> The eye of the beholder can be trained by greed<br/> Tell a lie often enough and it'll be believed<br/> Keep life fast and tough, no time to stop and see<br/> This suppression of faith!

We must rise above these common criminals<br/> Who would use us for their own ends, shipwreckers for wealth<br/> (Stay right there! I'm gonna tell ya all about it!)<br/> <br/> (Keep listenin')<br/> Our gift, at times, a heavy stone, but we must not lose sight<br/> And hold tight to the values that we hold dear to life<br/> <br/> An age old trick before war is waged, replace the eggs with their own fakes<br/> Those on the make, bite the bait, their skin now breaks to reveal their scales<br/> <br/> We have seen them come, crowned upon their thrones<br/> Obsessed with their own glory in a non-existant glow<br/> (Why don't you think about it?)<br/> <br/> (Do you get it yet?)<br/> We have seen them come, we have seen them go, dissolve, melt away without a trace<br/> These stirrers of the troubles that we are left to face<br/> (But I've seen ya'll)<br/> <br/> An age old trick before war is waged, replace the eggs with their own fakes<br/> Those on the make, bite the bait, their skin now breaks to reveal their scales<br/> Sink their fangs into everything, to poison us from within our faith<br/> Servant, serpent, obedident slave, agent provocateur, pet rattlesnake!<br/> <br/> As times your pride gets in the way<br/> But you never really lose<br/> If you don't play their games <br/> If you don't sing their tunes<br/> <br/> (Yeah, your're gonna watch it black man)<br/> What sometimes seems like action can be a trap that makes things worse<br/> There just ain't no quick solution, stay wary and alert!<br/> <br/> An age old trick before war is waged, replace the eggs with their own fakes<br/> Those on the make, bite the bait, their skin now breaks to reveal their scales<br/> Sink their fangs into everything, to poison us from within our faith<br/> Servant, serpent, obedident slave, agent provocateur, pet rattlesnake!<br/> <br/> We must rise above these common criminals<br/> Who would use us for their own ends, shipwreckers for wealth

A great man has gone, a new war begun<br/> Kin fighting kin, it's blood against honour<br/> It sickens me, and it saddens my soul<br/> Have the thorns of our rose grown outta control?<br/> All dignity stripped away and our unity torn<br/> And I am but a voice caught up in this storm<br/> <br/> When something is broken, you gotta at least try to fix it<br/> I feel I owe it to that man anyway<br/> <br/> Stop chasing your tails, they make you do it just to amuse them<br/> They've got you where they want, you're ruled by confusion<br/> Too scared to show doubt? Even though you've figured it out<br/> Just keep saying "yes" so they won't come for you<br/> And when my blood's shed and you turn away and close your eyes<br/> I'll bleed for you, as the guilty walks by<br/> <br/> When something is broken, you gotta at least try to fix it<br/> I feel I owe it to that man anyway<br/> <br/> Time was, I remember Ian, you told us to shine<br/> Though ground in the dust I'm still gonna try!<br/> <br/> So they can tear at my feelings and stab at my soul<br/> But they won't tame the spirit that left their hearts long ago<br/> You see, I judge a man by his deeds and what my own eyes see<br/> And you ain't gonna play me for the fool no more<br/> We are not pets, to be fed that do tricks when they're told<br/> So leave us alone, we are the independant voice, we're not here to be owned!

When we were young I thought you had it all, at least it seemed that way to me<br/> I didn't realise that you give it all up for a life of misery<br/> You got caught at an early age and oh I've seen it all before<br/> You said that you could "handle it", that it was "fun" and nothing more<br/> <br/> Erosion of your senses<br/> In a chain of consequences<br/> <br/> I can't forget the friend you were, but you don't see the shame<br/> The only thing that drives you now is more poison for your brain<br/> There's a vacant expression across your face as you smile and say "it's cool"<br/> But the person you were is gone for good and left behind a shallow tool<br/> <br/> I suppose you think that it's romantic, breakin' into old people's flats?<br/> To steal from people's cars and houses? To feed your habbit laying on your back?<br/> You've lost touch with the reality, sometimes you screamed, sometimes you cried<br/> But my friend had long since gone, long before the "junkie" died

The degradation is here, the conspiracy is clear<br/> The people close their eyes, to the crime and the lies<br/> While the nation drowns in tears<br/> The corruption has set in, dis-information being beamed in<br/> The protests are hushed, all resistance is crushed<br/> Are we gonna let them win?<br/> 24 hour bullshit<br/> <br/> Big brother transmits to you, an agreeable attitude<br/> You're so naive, ready to believe, everything they fed to you<br/> You digest it with such a ease, this acceptance, your disease<br/> You sit up and beg as they fill up your head<br/> With the way that you should be<br/> 24 hour bullshit<br/> <br/> Did someone say "freedom of speech"?<br/> Is my tune at number 1 this week?<br/> Official guidelines, monopoly rules<br/> Same old garbage every channel you choose <br/> Only music for the sheep on the radio<br/> Programming the minds and keeping them closed<br/> Electronic jibbering forced to the youth<br/> With no-one allowed to speak the truth!<br/> <br/> Receiving all that they send from your invisible friend<br/> Piped into your home, or on the open road<br/> Dictates the latest trends<br/> Dependent in every way, your companion for work, rest and play<br/> They communicate, the choice of the state, 24 hours a day<br/> 24 hour bullshit

They gave them bullets, they gave them guns<br/> With a tear in their eyes, mothers waved off their sons<br/> Brave young men, all honest and true<br/> A foreign adventure, the right thing to do<br/> They told them all stories, sent them to frontlines<br/> Whilst generals all sat with their cigars and wine<br/> They taught them to fight, they gave them pay<br/> But many young soldiers was heard to say<br/> <br/> We fought in the trenches, we fought in the sand<br/> We gave our all, we stood man for man<br/> And they never questioned, or asked how we died<br/> They just sat back in parliament and decided our lives<br/> <br/> The food it was tasteless, the rain never stopped<br/> But loyal they were to the flag raised aloft<br/> The orders came forward, advance at first light<br/> The sound of the shells, echoed on through the night<br/> The charge was sounded, they answered the call<br/> Young soldiers watched as their brothers fell<br/> For ten feet of land, 10 000 lay dead<br/> And the generals just shrugged and they all shook their heads<br/> <br/> They fought in the trenches, they fought in the sand<br/> They gave their all, and stood man for man<br/> And no-one never questioned, or asked how they died<br/> They just sat back in parliament and decided our lives<br/> <br/> They fought in the trenches, they fought in the sand<br/> They gave their all, and stood man for man<br/> And no-one never questioned, or asked how they died<br/> They just sat back in parliament and made up more lies!<br/> <br/> Some soldiers were lucky, they only lost legs<br/> Or eyes, or hands, but at least they could beg<br/> Proud men and women forced onto the streets<br/> No chance of a future and no food to eat<br/> Many an old soldier asked "What's it all for?"<br/> "I don't want to fight in this brothers war!"<br/> They were thrown into cells, protests swept away<br/> Has anything changed, when you look at today?<br/> <br/> They fought in the trenches, they fought in the sand<br/> They gave their all, and stood man for man<br/> And no-one never questioned, or asked how they died<br/> They just sat back in parliament and decided their lives<br/> <br/> They marched to the beat of stick upon drum<br/> They followed pied piper, wherever he beckoned<br/> Trusting in all, and some who survived<br/> Looked around them, and asked - Why?

There is waste, forced onto you, choices took away, but you can bare no blame<br/> A chipped diamond still a precious stone who'll return the piece of you they take?<br/> There is waste, done on to you, you can't undo, all that you can not be, now's the shame<br/> All your dreams left un-pursued, left behind, somewhere the real you, someplace<br/> <br/> Even those on death row, they gloat and re-create<br/> Free to re-live their crimes, whilst for death the wait<br/> But these scars cut to deep, this pain will not heal<br/> Their death won't restore the hopes that they steal<br/> <br/> There is fear, you try to hide and like a haunting, it creeps up again<br/> Fight for control of your mind, scars upon your thoughts, bleed deep in your veins<br/> There is fear, that screams inside and a torment, twisting endless pain<br/> What justice really fits the crime? They destroy and do they ever really pay?<br/> <br/> There is pain, that's there for sure, locked away, somewhere, inside, someplace<br/> Each day's the same, lost all alone, you act your part and don't expose a trace<br/> There is pain, that has no cure to cut your life, won't cut short your pain<br/> All the same you must endure, forced to watch the guilty walk to freedom again<br/> And again, and again, and again!

Oh, her colours are down, looking drained and unwashed now<br/> The hot sun turns her green to brown, this summer heat that warms me now<br/> And so I walk her beaten tracks with this rays upon bare back<br/> Along the track next to the stream, grateful for the cooling breeze<br/> <br/> Outside in her open air, I thank her for every breath that's there<br/> For every time she struggles with the pain, poisoned and dumped on, once again<br/> She grows back through all the worst, pushing up through scorched black earth<br/> Strong relentless with will to survive, passed on to her children with envigoured new life<br/> <br/> Her beauty has more colours , more colours than her rainbows<br/> More shades than chrome, more shades than her sun's glow<br/> I salute the ground at my feet whilst she stands firm, so do we<br/> She moves me down deep inside my soul, her beauty is the very essence of life<br/> <br/> Hear her offspring in the fields, until death they never yield<br/> A fight to survive, it's natures way as was intended, from first day<br/> To be born, and surely tested so only strong might be selected<br/> Earth mother, you know that it's true, all teds blood is spilled for you

Should the darkness fill my eyes<br/> I will die as a viking dies<br/> <br/> They'll find me when my fight is done<br/> When the gods reclaim a chosen son<br/> <br/> Bear me home<br/> Over the foam<br/> In my battle attire<br/> In my funeral pyre<br/> <br/> Let the fire arise and flame the day<br/> And right royally I pass away<br/> <br/> Seaward gale<br/> Swell the sail<br/> 'Til the deep afar<br/> Shines a mighty star<br/> <br/> When Valhall's walls shall ring<br/> A welcome to the warrior king
