VNV Nation - Sentinel lyrics

rate me

Can we say that we are free

Our hands are bound and voices silent

I'm sure it's not a dream

I am awake, my eyes are open

I can't accept and won't concede

In aftermath we find redemption

The causes that are seized

And disguised as revolution

Quell the rage that deeply seethes

The extremes of these devotions

Dismantle the machine

The device of their creation

I can't accept and won't concede

That this is who we are

The conflict that is seized

And disguised as greater notions

To the songs that sing of glory and the brave

Are we dreaming there are better days to come

When will the banners and the victory parades

Celebrate the day a better world was won

On the day, the storm has just begun

I will still hope there are

Better days to come

In the face of what I say

My words will turn to anger

Malevolence in need

Cannot provide direction

I won't accept this thought

That this is who we are

Positions never change

Losing all forward motion

All of that which deeply seethes

Temper your devotion

Dismantle the machine

The device of your convictions

I can't accept and won't concede

That this is who we are

The conflict that is seized

And disguised as greater notions

To the songs that sing of glory and the brave

Are we dreaming there are better days to come

When will the banners and the victory parades

Celebrate the day a better world was won

To the songs that sing of glory and the brave

Are we dreaming there are better days to come

When will the banners and the victory parades

Celebrate the day a better world was won

On the day the storm has just begun

I will still hope there are

Better days to come

On the day the storm has just begun

I will still hope there are

Better days to come<br />
