R-Mean - Open Wounds lyrics

rate me

A bit of mystery lies in history's eyes

‘Cause in time the facts and the figures get twisted with lies

The devil tried to kiss us goodnight

But he hides, that's how a proven fact is simply denied

I am a victim, a victim of time

Victimized by the victory of viciousness, the system revised

They say a century's passed, nothing can bring them to life

I say our memories last, at least admit to your crimes

I try to look these little kids in their eyes

As they're watching their mother's demise

She's cut, blood drips from her thighs

She was pregnant, they're ripping her stomach, it's slit from the sides

Just so they could guess on the sex of the kid that's inside

They had us walking and walk in the blistering sun

Sands of the deserts as far as our vision can run

They had us walking in circles, walk till we starve

Oh Lord, I hate 'em! Forgive me, it's wrong, but I'm scarred

They planted the seeds of hate in my heart, it keeps growing

My heartbeat's slowing

My heart just keeps hoping

‘Cause we'll never, ever give up on our cause

‘Cause we owe it to all the people we lost

Refuse to give in, our wounds are dripping like bloody hell

From brutal whippings to crucifixions with rusty nails

But who will listen, the truth is hidden

Massacres and cruel killings

To snatching our future kingdom and commonwealth

But where is the promised help?

They distance 'em from it

Well, is this what you wanted?

Man, it's just making me sick to my stomach

‘Cause Hitler has done it afterwards

Following the Ottoman's example, can you handle me quoting this bastard's words?

‘Cause see in '39 this how your friend spoke:

"After all, who remembers Armenians today" end quote

Forgive and forget? No

History repeats, this leach is draining us, let go!

This battle against hope

We gather around

We light our candles in crowds

These tears land on the ground

Each year standing so proud

Together we holding banners and shout

But it's spreading through empty space that doesn't travel the sound?

Nobody wants to hear us, the population just can't see through the mess

The way you treat one case determines what people do next

Souls can't peacefully rest

Till the killer's secret's confessed

Buried in our holy lands that we now don't even possess

It's taken

Pardon my phrases, I'm blatant

But all these nations are shaking the arms of Satan for the sake of army bases

We're praying to God to make 'em admit it, we're still hoping

But they still won't and that's why these wounds are still open
