Weapons Of Mass Distraction - Blinded By Faith

Shockwave in the suburbs of the Empire

The twin towers collapse, a glimpse of apocalypse

30 seconds and the face of the world has changed

Scorched earth policy applied on US ground

Achilles' heel touched irremediably

And the giant chokes in the ashes of his dreams

Security increased and paranoia swells

Vengeance sharpened its claws

We need a scapegoat, a scarecrow, a symbol

A symbol of Hate and its horrid sequels

A scarecrow to incarnate our secrete nightmare

A scapegoat to charge and judge without appeal

But, there’s a but, eye for an eye is a law

That makes the world blind

There’s an enemy and a victim

But the victim soon becomes the enemy

Who wages the war, and who pulls the strings?

Hidden murderers, suit and tie criminals

Who wages the war, and who pulls the strings?

Don’t be fooled by their weapons of mass distraction

Don’t misunderstand our critic of the conflict

We stand for nuance, doubt and judgement

Our point of view: there’s no Good and Evil in such a war

No one-way terrorism, no heroic excuse for murder

The circumstances were perfect

For the capitalistic untouchables

To instigate a New War Order

To implant monster corporation in hostile lands

To pump the black gold right from the veins of the Middle East

Shockwave at the heart of dissidence

Innocent civilians in the eye of the storm

Western reprisals take aim at the wrong target

The besieged crave to prove their firepower

To an invader of this stature

The jihad seems a suitable response

But, there’s a but, eye for an eye is a law

That makes the world blind

There’s an enemy and a victim

But the victim soon becomes the enemy
