just following orders - stockades lyrics

just following orders, hold the line
they’re drawn in blood, hide behind
shield eyes, badges covered, justice blind
evictions violence; the only crime
enough force, securing, choking out
bent knees, bowed heads, remain calm
reaction compels breathless shout
of freedoms threat; police terror
lose trust, coated weary clout
propaganda’s perseverant psalm
they won´t excuse your reasoned doubt
paid for with bodies that paid for arms

sit staring drenched indirections flux
together memories unfold
futures seem present in the past
insurmountable woes
a helpless plea becomes a rasp
question ability to cope
find a reality to grasp
convolutions blinking hope

stranded on the beaches of pollutions dead coastline, not celestial design
what might have been obscured by indifference wasn´t seen, still hides in plain sight
what might have been obscured by omission wasn´t said, knotted throats leak heavy sighs

mandatory violence
malevolent views
mandatory silence
powers abused
trials we’re presented
wars we all lose
screaming for changes
hierarchies removed
drops in a river (swim disillusion)
tears in the rain (drown in seclusion)
waving a fan at a hurricane
mapping the world, a journey escape where we
freely reside, a nice place to share and to thrive
