of americana - riotnine lyrics
spires of cathedrals
reaching towards the heavens
to justify the dead
to justify the dead
placed atop the sanctuary
bears a cross made from coins
moralized corruption
holy is the bloodshed
the pockets of the rulers
are bought and sold with plastic christ
moralized corruption
a dollar for your soul
war feeds the oil
oil feeds the war
the cycle of destruction
causes oceans to ignite
industrial k!lling of children, their bloodlines decayed
the scars of an empire are left upon mother earth’s face
industrial k!lling of animals to fill our plates
the scars of an empire are left upon mother earth’s face
which one will fade away first?
the kingdoms we built or the planet that’s k!lled in their wake?
which one will we save first?
the last tree of fruit or the dollars that we gain?
which one will fade away first?
the kingdoms we built or the planet that’s k!lled in their wake?
which one will we save first?
the last tree of fruit or the dollars that we gain?
this is the last song
i will ever sing
that makes me feel too hurt
to act on anything
this is the last time
i scream out in pain
we’ll fight for better days
they didn’t die in vain
i’m not sure if it’s the medicine or the smoke in the air
or if it’s just anxiety, dysphoria, and despair
but i can’t keep my stomach down, nor tears from seepin’ out
apocalyptic heartache, my city’s burning down
i can’t tell if it’s the bullet holes in classroom doors
or if it’s just a generation raised on televised war
and they say rise up your rifles, make brothers enemies
and surrender to the machine
we cut old growth forests for military police
and lock up the protestors in the land of the free
while the church funds a genocide in the middle east
god bless the glory of the oil regime
i’m not sure if it’s the hopelessness or lack of means to live
or if we’ve just been taught there’s nothing left to give
but we can’t keep our weapons down, nor fingers pointing out
we either band together or watch each other drown
