Riot

Ignoring injustices is just as bad as being the enemy of the victims.

As I close the window

I can hear the willows'

Cry, but why?

There's something sinister

In the night, it stirs, stirs.

What happened here? I'm not sure, I don't wanna know

JUST CLOSE THE DOOR

In the distant night

You can hear the ri-ots

And the people

Their screams are not as feeble

Anymore

I try to tune it out as I hear the knock, knock on the door.

I go and I open it to you

But what I see isn't right and I don't wanna believe it's true

That this has happened, happened to you!

In the distant night

You can hear the ri-ots

And the people

Yeah, their screams are not as feeble

Anymore

And then I hear a knock, knock on the door.

What's happening?  This never happened before.

You look at me with distain, I'm going insane!

In the distant night

You can hear the children cry

As they watch them fall, as they watch the people die

And the attacks, and the words aren't feeble anymore

THEY WON"T HOLD BACK MUCH MORE

I watch with horror as the guns come marching in

Putting bullets into the minds of children, why oh why

Scarring little angels, sparing human devils

What have you done?

The blood-shot eyes

Echo their cries

Once an innocent, pure green

Turn the color of true greed

Red consumed the life that was held so promising

And now the city, once a city, is falling

The victims are calling

Out your name, blood they say!

As I hear a knock knock on the door

There goes the door

What have you done?  I don't know you anymore

In the not so distant night

You can hear the ri-ots

And the people

Their screams aren't feeble

Anymore

In the night, you can hear the children cry

As the people fall, yeah they all fall

But they will crawl

They will crawl

Determined to bring this down, their actions aren't feeble anymore

You aren't true anymore

I just won't ignore this anymore.
