TRAGEDY LYRICS

1. The Ending Fight

This is the end of the last days of mourning
One more sad song will be sung
The only children of the lost generation
Are restless and angry and armed
We've watched our loved ones
Lose all life and passion
Another lifetime is spent chasing
The prospect of hope and salvation
Wondering where all the early years went
We won't be sold to our sellers
One more sad song will be sung
This chant of anger will ring out like sirens
Until the last neck of the last boss is hung
The end of the ruling classes
The end of sleepless nights
The end of taking orders
The end of wasted lives
the end... the ending fight

2. The Waiting

Handcuffed and gagged, bled until dizzy
Consumed with fatigue
Acquired from years of crawling
Closer to the edge of the abyss
Only to be kicked in the knees
Dismantled again
Our eyes strained, their muscles stretched taut
Teased by visions of escaped
Viewed through narrow windows
Of missed opportunity
And windscreens of regret
Disabled by morality imposed
By those who would dispose of us
Except that our last ounces of energy,
Our last hopes generate their wealth
Our last hopes keep us i wait
And our waiting is our incarceration
The waiting is our imprisonment

3. Life?

To never give up, to never give in
Becomes a vision of impossibility
A the bombardment worsens
Narrowly defined roles now easier to play
To never give up, to never give in
To the incessant intoxication of the senses
The allure of the machine
Is a full time job without pay
Fighting for survival
Can we call it life?
when the beating of hearts has ceased
Can we call it life?
with our days spent taking a beating
Can we call it life?
When our daze reeks of death
Can we call this life?
