Watching the befuddled masses continue to play the charade, I wonder if maybe this 'oldie but goodie' isn't in our near future.
Corrosion Of Conformity - Vote With A Bullet (Official Music Video). Watch more top selected videos about: Corrosion of Conformity
This was the song that held me together when I was sitting in solitary in the brig awaiting the court martial. The lyrics may still be scrawled on the back of that cell door. LOL
Here are the lyrics.
CoC-Vote with a bullet
The number in nations
The god in their hearts
The justice in swine
The devil in God
VOTE
This long hand that breaks our backs
Still casting shadows on all that we see
Unjustified...mercy killing is just a feeling
To keep our numbers from being free
(Chorus)
Prison for praise is not worth thinking
Sin is still in and our ballots are shrinking
So unleash the dogs - the only solution
Forgive and forget, fuck no
I'm talking about a revolution
The prophet man's got a needle in his hand
Draws his dreams from your soul - bleeding
minds into sand
The year of the fear has arrived decades too late
And our right to stand and fight is now
solely sealed in fate
(Repeat first chorus)
One last chance mission with a vision
'cos our lives are just cards in their stack
Our time is short but theirs is shorter
How much longer can they hold us back
(Chorus)
Prison for praise - the obvious answer
Once had power mad - living disaster
Don't fuck with me 'cos I'm on a freedom train
That bears no name - this time
I'm voting with a bullet
This view they once knew made our nooses too tight
This justice in swine
This devil in god
So God bless my soul - I've got total control
And the crosshairs lined up dead in my sighthttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif
I'm voting with a bullet
To rip off the lyrics, its only a matter of time, isn't it?
Addendum: AP has a great piece on his site that reflects my mood today.
