Lyrics

Countries in the distance
Unpronounceable city names
A leader's ink to paper
A million souls endowed with pain

Oh, hold your fire!
Can't you see?
Today's indifference could forever your conscience burn

No. Can't ignore it
Got to fight the effective anesthesia of our TVs

Cycles of destruction on repeat
foolish human animal
New generations emulate our wrongs
What have we done?

Now! Hold your fire
Can't you see?
You take their hope, their innocence there is no return

No. Can't ignore it
Got to fight the collective amnesia of what this means

Just when you feel you've seen it all
Terror from above begins to fall
Shaking the foundations of this reality
While this spooky roundabout
It brings us right around again to
the same old place

Country names are closer now
With pronounceable city names
Hear the sirens blaring
A million eyes opening wide
