In the silence
I saw state violence
Raising my hand in a fist to the fist of the tyrant
Now I want it all
My back against the wall
And I ain't gonna wait no more
Cos you're a liar
You preach to the choir
We're dancing in our chains in the flames of the fire
Now you're out of time
The fear's in your eyes
And I'm lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
That divide
Lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
I'm coughing up blood
On the crisp white sheets of a welfare cut
Trying my luck but the ink won't smudge
So I stick two fingers up
Shouting out that "enough is enough"
Cos you're a liar
You preach to the choir
We're dancing in our chains in the flames of the fire
Now you're out of time
The fear's in your eyes
And I'm lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
That divide
Lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
That divide
That divide
Lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
From profit and poverty, sin and dependency
Murderous policy and social inequality
Suffocate austerity, a never ending elegy
Lying through your teeth
When you pretend you never see
The suffering and starving
Death in profit margins
Broken dreams, blood we bleed
The empty space caught in between
The violence
Blood stained silence
Who is it that you protect scapegoating the oppressed
Cos you're a liar
You preach to the choir
We're dancing in our chains in the flames of the fire
Now you're out of time
The fear's in your eyes
And I'm lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
That divide
That divide
That divide
That divide
Lost in the lines in the lines in the lines that divide
