machine

Filed in place, matching in pace, cowards with batons hiding their face
Dispersing counter action (the dividing distraction)
I watched them get away without a trace

Led astray and left behind
Your ideals made you blind

Stand behind, hold the line, backstab, in the name of worthless pride
As they're worshiped by those they lobotomized

Insipid and hollow, you're no leader, you just follow
The damage you've done, this pain you've caused being swept below

There's no indifference
I can't ignore this
Protect and serve?
You're dismissed

Black bruises blooming, red and blue glooming
The sirens flood as freedom's drained away
No redemption as my faith begins to fade
