RUSH

RUSH - Witch Hunt lyrics

rate me

The night is black, without a moon.<br>The air is thick and still.<br>The vigilantes gather on<br>The lonely torchlit hill.<br><br>Features distorted in the flickering light,<br>Faces are twisted and grotesque.<br>Silent and stern in the sweltering night,<br>The mob moves like demons possesed.<br>Quiet in conscience, calm in their right,<br>Confident their ways are best.<br><br>The righteous rise<br>With burning eyes<br>Of hatred and ill-will.<br>Madmen fed on fear and lies<br>To beat and burn and kill.<br><br>They say there are strangers who threaten us,<br>Our immigrants and infidels.<br>They say there is strangeness to danger us<br>In our theatres and bookstore shelves,<br>That those who know what's best for us<br>Must rise and save us from ourselves.<br><br>Quick to judge,<br>Quick to anger,<br>Slow to understand<br>Ignorance and prejudice<br>And fear walk hand in hand.
