"Birth of a Nation"

[jedisinger]

lukewarm inspiration
overtone by conversation
stated in a soft persuasion
consider this my resignation
written out deep frustration
murdered through our desperation

keep talking i'm not amused
no longer a part of you
it's time we get up
and make a real move

black heart laceration
driven by adoration
torn apart in contemplation
our bitterness through salvation
overshot these aspirations
for the birth of dying nation

keep talking i'm not amused
no longer a part of you
it's time we get up
and make a real move
cheap scarring we are the bruise
of beaten hearts that you've abused
it's time we get up
and make a real move

infidels and martyrs
masochists and barters
calling for the starters
to save this dead and broken
machine

(we are not meant for misery)

we are not meant for misery
on our knees begging to be free

(we are not meant for misery)

we are not meant for misery
on our knees begging to be free

keep talking i'm not amused
no longer a part of you
it's time we get up
and make a real move
cheap scarring we are the bruise
of beaten hearts that you've abused
it's time we get up
and make a real move
