Condescending barbs, shrapnel of disregard, incessantly bombard an increasingly bleeding heart
REACT, RETRACT, REDACT
We don’t question the obscure, while illusionists fake rapport, steal our stage for their encore
EAT, BLEAT, REPEAT
War is at our door, blaring lies we’ve heard before, our morals now on the floor
POINT, SHOOT, REBOOT
Deafening applause from hands covered with gauze
STRANGLE, MANGLE, DANGLE
Martyrs on display, they were rebels anyway
BLAME, DEFAME, RENAME
Doubting in the dark, praying for a spark
REFLECT, RESPECT, CONNECT
It’s not too late to change our fate
PEEL, FEEL, HEAL
