lyrics

All the fear that you taught them
All the peace that you tossed away
This is not the devil that you seek

Helpless refugee
Lying in the sand
But you got what you wanted

Every hope that you squander
Every fool that you bring to bear
Pushing ever further til the end

Helpless refugees buried in the sand
But you got what you needed
So fuck the rest
They never had a chance

Through the frail
And the suffering
Cages and the kids
You are far beyond the edge of being everything you fear and still

Selfish cowardice
Lying in your bed
And you got what you needed
To fall asleep
And never have to dream
