Statues Fall

Too many years we turned the other cheek
Now reap the wrath of those you thought weak
On the tv watching helpless
As we retake the streets
The luxury around you paid for in blood
But that can't save you now

(All the pain, all the lies, all the hurt)
At once washed away
A glorious new day
Washed it all away
Washed it all away

Young faces delight watching statues fall
When the people unite pay heed to the call
Marching on for our freedom
A destiny we choose to make
The world you left behind cleansed of the blood
And now you rot in hell

(All the pain, all the lies, all the hurt)
At once washed away
A glorious new day
Washed it all away
Washed it all away

I believed the end was nigh
But here we stand, over you
Unbowed
Still alive
