Ours a different future

Brothers and sisters
kindred souls
let's come together
and break the mold
ours is resistance
this storm to weather
be strong, be bold
brothers and sisters
let dreams take hold
ours a different future
for us to behold...

The failed republic

Failed are the days of the republic
led to ruin, sullied, tarnished, broken
power, greed, a blood filled goblet
a glorious past sold out and forsaken

Today we celebrate a myth

Today we celebrate a myth
one in which freedom is still alive
our drunken stupor blinds us
we ignore the chains of government
buying the lies of security
that which we hold so sacred
and celebrate today
we freely gave away
and this we sadly
just don't see
watching the fireworks explode...

Crumbling Illusions

You can't break the system
the flaws are there by design
it's the illusion that it worked
that we see crumbling....

I'm reduced

I'm reduced by a heartless world
suffering from the folly of fools
who rejoice in hatred and cruelty

The Iron Lady

She showed no fear
her resolve firm and steady
her vision focused and clear
such was The Iron Lady

Loving thy neighbours

Rattle your sabers
bang the war drums
here come the invaders
lyrics of hatred are sung
so much for loving thy neighbours

Grave of dreams

You, a promise
undelivered
You, a vice
despised...
the shallow
grave of dreams...

Over the cliff

Politicians call it a gift,
as they push us over the cliff

Building Better Tomorrows

We see your lips move,
but your words have no meaning...
hollow, going where the wind blows
You offer no comfort,
shallow and self-serving
ignoring our suffering...
We're just votes to you,
a means to power...
Be gone, we've work to do
building better tomorrows...

Budget Talks

False smiles and snake eyes,
once more a nation held hostage,
to grandstanding and lies...

Echoes of failure

Echoes of failure
now fills the news...
deals made in smokey chambers,
corruption hiding from view...

Humanity the same

The world never changes,
new faces, new names...
war and hatred still rages,
passing years, humanity the same...

An endgame of power

An endgame of power,
this bait and switch,
pushing us over an economic cliff....

Bad Promise

The state promised security,
in exchange we gave our freedom,
now we have neither....

Pushed towards a cliff

The people your toys,
as you push them towards a cliff,
no leadership, just ploys,
our economic future adrift...

No mandate

You have no mandate,
we've just given up...
such is our failed state...

Before government handouts

It was kindness, love and friendship,
from strangers and neighbors that helped us...
it made us strong and appreciative...
such were our communties,
before government handouts destoryed this...

Forsaken peace

The guns go rat tat tat,
bombs boom boom boom,
cities are just a deathtrap,
the future filled with doom,
peace forsaken by bureaucrats,
dreams up in smoke and fumes....

The Nanny Motherland

It's an era of ruin,
and that of party planning,
their dependence doctrine,
the nanny motherland...
