Knotted Rope from Dark Empire by Diffractions

Facing into the sea
Raging violently
Watching as it descends
Over and over again
Will your god hear your plea?
Will you ever be free?
Will the world ever mend?
See a positive trend?

This is nothing more than
Spiritual cacophony
Bleeding through the ages
Manifesting physically
Indiscriminately
Clinging to a ray of hope
You’re inevitably
Hanging from their knotted rope

All I see is destruction
From hardened hearted tools
Fully taking advantage
Of disenfranchised fools

And here we go again

Living in the system
Future dystopian

(PRECHORUS)

(CHORUS)

They all play the game
And you are the pawn

If you would think it is true
That they would represent you
Rather than catering to
The individuals who
Line their greedy pockets
Big moneyed interests

You are nothing but a fool
Fallen victim to the rule
Propaganda is the tool
Used to manipulate you
You think you’re fighting demons
You’ve fallen prey to weakness

(CHORUS)

And here we go again
