Serenity slight among dying calls
The muffled sound of retreat
Our right denied
Icons replaced with a knife in the soil
The deafening roar of machinery
Blood spilt under seas
Clowns go on laughing as their pockets fill
The ringmaster nods, the signal to kill
The audience fold beneath weight of regret
How much does she pay
How much do you get
A signature can't stop the revolt
Conquest has made the call
The debt must be paid
Mother, your children have failed you again
Your eyes once shone blue
Now humanity gray
Clowns go on laughing as their pockets fill
The ringmaster nods, the signal to kill
The audience fold beneath weight of regret
How much does she pay, how much do you get
Gaia once answered the demands of you all
The greedy, the needy, the rich and the poor
Dead verses rehashed and released again
Will she get the truth before she takes her last breath
Blindly we wait while the questions keep circling truths
When I ask you speak, I want to hear your voice
Speak your truth, straight from you
Don't you ever forgive
Don't you ever forget
All your angels are dead
Our right denied
Your debt must be paid
How much does she pay
Don't you fucking forgive
Don't you fucking forget
