This sad, sorry nation

Missing a foundation

Built on lies, ties

Sewn in invisible thread

Protection? Rejection!

The protestors are dead

Tales of gold

Quickly sold

To ignorant ears

Drowned in beers

Democracy? Hypocrisy!

Eyes are spies

Lingering, fingering

Loyalty pays in blood money, honey!

A man for a man

Brother to another

Stabbed in the back

Hands of red, mail of black

Dreams, wishes

Squandered in the dust

Steal for a meal?

You trust a must!

This nation? Ruination?

Denial’s our new war

Not just a river anymore
