Creation
I was born from silence
Beset compliance
I grew from violence
A whispered defiance
No more betrayal
No more assumption
Our fear has failed
But in destruction
Take a look at what you must become
The search for satisfaction is also loading the gun
Another look at what we have all done
Birthing destruction was our saviour’s son
The devil will lie
Our god must stand by
The light will save us
The sacrifices of the black sky
Fear breeds deterrence
But the truth breathes recurrence
And whilst our world spins
Destruction will break the silence
One more look at what we try to forget
Burying pain by torturing the sunset
When we look before we are laid to rest
We will see that creation is what we all detest
