Vacant Majesty

I am a proud member of this bloodlust society 
Where I receive my propaganda education 
I eagerly learn about the vacant majesty 
Of my beloved suicide nation 
I'm nested safely in my sickle celled community 
Masochism is my vocation 

Freedom has been bought by the east 
Leech us dry, parasitic possesion 
It's not much of a life to say the least 
I'm not depressed, just in a small recession. 

Here we are feeding the disease again 
Hearts beat louder,faster, then silent as the grave 
Enemy is the name you give to friends 
Smog swallows the sun, we'll never see again 

Love is the name we give to treason 
Remove common sense to achieve perfection 
If you have guns you need no reason 
Approach the truth at your own discretion 

The votes have been cast, we all want change 
Change in what? That's the real decision 
The fears are just as familiar though rearranged 
We stand between beliefs avoid taking any position 
The thin line between saint and sinner is estranged 
Run from the world like a politician 

Here we are feeding the disease again 
Hearts beat louder,faster, then silent as the grave 
Enemy is the name you give to friends 
Smog swallows the sun, we'll never see again
