Protest The Hero - Soft Targets Make Softer Graves lyrics

rate me

Now's the time to take all your rage and your

frustration and focus it in a positive way.

It's time to fight but only for the democracy

that has been ripped from beneath our feet. Is

it ridiculous to believe that killing the

innocent is murder? but it is to believe that

nothing can be done. These people are not

machines, they're living they're breathing

they're dying they're human beings who cry

"please don't kill me" in the same trembling

frequency we do. Propaganda screams "have you

forgotten?" in six minute intervals so loud

that you can't escape them, but now I'll ask

have you forgotten? about the young men in

boxes, about the choking in the field, about a

treaty (of a palace in the swamp) that was set to

end it all? It's safe to say I'll never forget

the day i first heard your voice, laced with

undertones of hate and vengeance. I suppose all

that matters is dulce et decorum est Pro patria

mori, or at least it still acts as an effective

facade to mask the burning bush's political

alternative agenda. How sweet and fitting is it

to die for one man's greed?
