pax romana - bomethius lyrics

Loading...

we’re burning down statues and raising up new ones
we all must hold the sign
if you prefer to not to, there’s a sign for that — and someone will hold it for you
given today we’ll fight for you, but tomorrow we might fight you too

so bombs will be dropped, and people will talk
“dear bob what do you think?
is the pax romana not magnificent?!”

“i don’t read fiction, i read history,”
he said, without the slightest smile
the irony of it all is his mystery
but for us here’s a dusty pyre

but i’ll stand with the ottomans as they conquer central europe—
burn down all the bureaucratic nonsense

finally, a position that’s completely clear
though they stand on other’s ground
in the hearts of their enemies strike fear

learning is the new sacrificial lamb
and so we slaughtered our exams
i’ll regurgitate what you think you need
but history is just a recipe

- bomethius lyrics
