Call To Arms

Earth left shattered, broken ground Call of duty raised the dead Screams are felt, no need for sound Blazing orange spotted red Douse the fires with blood shed Pillaged homes and raided farms Burning bush may well have said All men rise when called to arms Self appointed judge condemns Sinner’s mind admits defeat Inner torment from which stems The need to kiss the judge’s feet Criminals don’t need to eat Let them perish, do no harm Vengeful wrath salivates sweet All men rise when called to arms We have the right to hatred blind Protect our treasures from the sway We have the right to silence kind Determined not to go astray Careful planning day by day No surprises, no alarms Denial is the only way All men rise when called to arms Sleeping children dream of love Clutching talismans and charms The time has come to rise above All men rise when called to arms
