Flames

[Verse 1]:
Staring into the flames
Can't help but think of the games played
The names displayed, verses prayed
In hush tones, the lush zones burning
The lectures being learned with ears pricked
The clock tick, the young controllable minds yearning
The victory sip and cost of self-control lost
Your love in the gutter stuttering wondering will it ever stop?
The heart doesn't believe but eyes can't be deceived
Spread a virus, eyelids squeeze and start the bleed
Feed the seed and we grow, we were fated to overthrow
Sated to stay below or baited to just straight blow
Made to follow, now we hating so queue up the beat
And just straight flow like there is no tomorrow
The flames today are burning hot enough already
But throw the inside of my mind into the medley
And here we go, you think that Black Saturday was deadly?
You ain't seen nothin' yet
[Hook]:
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
[Verse 2]:
Inhaling all the smoke
Can't help but think of the innocent folk
Droppin' they jaws at humourless jokes, ridiculous laws
Various deity's names invoked and clauses called forth
To force stones to bleed & in the spatter soak
Verisimilitudes and pay-days to balance vicissitudes
It's a bloody good day mate
So, throw another shrimp on the barbie 'cos we Aussie, not Iraqi
Kick back with six-packs and impact snags heartily
Let insatiable hunger for apathy clog ya arteries
Blood pressure from stress, nada when the army gets
Genocide down to an artistry, don't fret
They protectin' our democracy from demonic Islamic threats
So let the threads expand while blood on sand
And the red right hands enact Imperial masterplans
Moral of the story I'm tellin', God is the white man
With selfrighteous flame to fan
[Hook]:
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
[Verse 3]:
Starin' at the cinders of your corpse
All sorts of thoughts and none of 'em pacifist
My ball is in the court of the Anarchist
Got the Black Bloc steel pipe thought of activism
Vandalism set in my brain
When vandalising a bull's face it's all the same
I can't distinguish between the slave and the master
Both armed to the teeth to hit the streets and pastures
And pass the ammunition, raze the crop of the farmer
Rob the children of fathers, puttin' shame to Osama
You got the right to bear arms, I got the right to bear against 'em
Dye the colours to black with the black blood of ya septum
Now the representation is of negation
Negating a structure of power that sours human relations
Raises the dumbest of faces above the brightest
And ya wonder why my fire's ignited
I'm excited at the idea of burning you liars
Yo, it's flash in the pan of the titans
[Hook]:
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
And we will dance like fireflies in the smokey demise
Of the greed, the self-righteousness and lies
And die with eyes dry from the flames
Die with eyes dry, eyes dry from the flames
