We have been betrayed.


The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
The king feasts while his soldiers keep order.
The priests pacify and build great churches.
And tell the rest of us it’s good to suffer.

Drag the nuns and priests into the bloody streets.
Drawn and quartered, raped and slaughtered.
Turn the tables on the oppressors.
Humiliate them as they march to their death.
Storm the castles. Burn down the mansions.
Take by force what is rightfully yours.
Bring the King and Queen to the guillotine.
Raise their heads for all to see.

As the old god dies a new god is born.
Young and hungry and more oppressive than before.
The people love their new god, and spread his word across the earth.
And in the name of freedom they build an empire of fear.
“Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice.”

Trampled by horses. Blasted by cannons.
Cut apart by a bayonet charge.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
The rulers feast while policemen keep order.
All the powerful stink of corruption.
All that’s noble is drowned in lies.
Living the good life while making us bow to a god that failed.
Promising plenty while sucking the blood from the world.

Plots uncovered. Men arrested. Conspirators are tried and executed.
