Cover art for For Broken Ears lyrics by Chuck Ragan

First off, thanks for putting this song on here.

This song is mainly about the corruption all of the badness in the world. The first part is about wars in far away lands, like Iraq. The suns are blackened with smoke from wars that are declared with little reason.

"The rotten core" is hell. Anyone involved in mindlessly following so called "good' administrations' intentions will go there.

Passion, and love are things that are barely existant. It falls on broken ears, it's left on the value shelf. No one needs it when the administrations tell us what to think. Love is dirt left to the wind. Still, it survives in these places. Someday, it will save us again. When there will be peace.

It's a sad yet hopeful song. About if we recognize we're all human on this world, Chuck probably wouldn't have written this song. That's just a rough translation, there are more metaphors that can be figured out using what I've said.

Again thanks for transcribing this (all I have is a rough recording from a show).
