Resist/r - The Crüxshadows

Striking back for the last

Heart attack

First you tip the scale

Then they tip it back

This escalating trend

Will never end

If they take from you

Then you take from them

With less concern

For what is fair

To an unconsidered

Blame you bear

This escalating trend

Will never end

If they take from you…

You take from them again

Waking up from a dream into another day

Never taking to heart all of the words they say

It so hard to believe if you never see

That the truth is split on the in-between

Waking up from your dream into another day

Never taking to heart all of the words they say

It so hard to believe because the truth is this:

What hatred breeds you must resist

Who was the first

And who was the last

Did you count yourself

Or omit the past

This basic concept

Begins again

When your actions flow

From the hate within?

I don’t understand

Why do you try

To make hatred and intolerance seem justified

I don’t understand your prejudice and lies

Tear down your ignorance open your eyes

If the heart is rich

Then what you think you are

In your core beliefs

Should not become a sword

This basic concept

Is where it ends…

If you close your heart

Then you begin again

I don’t understand

Why do you try

To make hatred and intolerance seem justified

I don’t understand your prejudice and lies

Tear down your ignorance open your eyes

Waking from your dream state

Waking to the truth
