Let the people die,

Let the children cry,

Let the city burn,

Because no one ever learns.

Watch the weapons glide,

Watch the carnage smile,

Watch them scream in sorrow,

Because there is no tomorrow.

Hear the muffled cries,

Hear their loudest lies,

Hear the gut-wrenching sobs,

Because justice isn't my job.

Hold your baseless fear,

Hold your loved ones dear,

Hold your hopes futile,

Because you can't dodge missiles.

Run from the fire bright,

Run from the maiden's plight,

Run from your ugly self,

Because you can't outrun certain deaths.

Spill the tears unshed,

Spill the blood of the dead,

Spill your deepest fears,

Because the end is near.

Feel the blood gush out the wound,

Feel their bodies fall to the ground,

Feel the pain in the tears you cry,

Because the human inside long ago died.

Be the sword that for them bleeds,

Be the tears in joy they weep,

Be the relieved breath they breathe,

Be the change you want to see.

Because if you don't who else could it be?

If you won't how else would we speak?

If you can't who else can kill

The real enemy, that lies within.
