The Storm Is Coming

The Storm is Coming
January 3, 2012

I see a dangerous storm brewing in America
I hear the dangerous creeping sounds 
I see on TV

The grinning masses
The lies

the politicians dancing on the grave
of freedom

I fear the growing power
The power of the intolerant ones
The power of their mightily wave

the coming of fascism
the coming of neo-Hitlerism

The coming of war 
To consume us all 

This time 
No one will save us

from the evil that surrounds us
God they say is on our side

and the darkness gathers hold
the evil slips out
The madness begins again

and those who see the light
those who know the right
and drowned out by the might

Might makes right
In the end 
Does it matter
as slavery descends upon us all
the 1 percent have their revenge
The rest of us don't matter

We are mere cogs 
In the wheel

and always have 
and always will

That is God's will
and who are we to disagree
with the word of God

and so I and my fellows
are marched off to our doom

resistance is futile
resistance is futile
resistance is futile
