Under The Weight Of Change.

(Song)

Looking for potential,
take over the land
dub it enrichment
and continue to stand
on what is not truly yours.
Demolish the past
with iron bars and modern exterior
but know, it can't last.

This 'pure' nation has fallen
to a profound culture of commercials,
a revolution for the superficial --
we only want what we can see.

Switch over to a new era,
this is what your ancestors worked for,
a lifetime of bloodshed forgotten;
traded for an aesthetic lore.
You can hear the past cry for renewal,
to interrogate this change
but are to remain dead and buried,
after all, this was an exchange.

This 'pure' nation has fallen
to a profound culture of commercials,
a revolution for the superficial --
we only want what we can see.

We can erase our pain,
delay every sorrow
if we repress what we remember
under the weight of tomorrow
under the weight of tomorrow
we can delay our sorrow
if we repress what we remember
under the weight of tomorrow.
