God Deciding - Hot Water Music

Transgressions are made

While cowards convey

With a demon’s ear, fixed and set to slay

While the statue awaits

To be whittled away

With a mock of a slogan hiding filth with fear

Never to learn

Only to burn… and be burned

Branded straight through slate

Clear as common day

What shall be the mark to be made?

When we crush it all to burn it down

Without sight, without sound

Not anything but a casualty forgotten in the ground

A simple shell, that’s solemn still--without sight, without sound

Go slowly cause at the moment

Things you’d never think you’d ever see

Are happening and you can’t believe the hatred

Make a martyr

A pedestal with ribbons of slaughter

Feed the altar

Stoke the fire it will take over

Ignore the cut… the skin with callus as well as interest

If all are reckless none is to profit

None is to win it

So who will pay for all the tears

All the lives, from either side?

All the years, all the time of living blind

Playing «God Deciding?»

And who will die next in line for the lie?

Justified for the rise of sitting high playing «God Deciding.»

And who will walk away

From the rage and revenge?

Inhumane consequence comes in time

Playing «God Deciding.»

And who will fall in line to arrive

Out of sight and out of mind?
