The Others from Simpler Times? by Healer of Bastards

We all blame the others
When our freedoms have been smothered
But they don’t blame big brother
‘Cos we all watch each other
Eyes beyond the primeval fire
Watching and waiting they never tire
Paralysed by an external force
Subjugated at the internal source
Power taken from our hands
No questions asked on this promised land
Promises broken and vows diseased
We turn on each other too blind to see
This is not a fresh wound – it festers and writhes beneath
This is an old scar – Fuck! It was us from the start
We all blame the others
When our freedoms have been smothered
But they don’t blame big brother
‘Cos we all watch each other
Faceless fury, fire and grave
Ice of heart fear from babes
Delusions and whispers, mirrors and spite
Baseless rumours sapping our plight
The masks have gone, a new age dawns
Fresh servants of hate have been born
It’s up to us to spear them through
Until we realise it’s me and you
