Seditions in Peacetime - Hexen

Low and behold…

The media is in unrest and the public is in tensions

All because they silenced him too late

Apprehending the members, presuming their power

Living in fear and a paranoid state

A false identity

Nevertheless they’re still after me

I was framed yet they have me on tape

Erase any hopes to escape…

Erase any hopes to escape

Peace… at a price!

Lives are sacrificed

Helpless and laced with hate

In prison for years, that’s the meaning of pain

With words as their weapon they stir shit in this scare

Intensifying conspiracies to save them from despair

Now they’ve got a corpse lying on the Capital’s steps

Preamble to the crisis that’s in store for them next

Spying for a foreign power convicted of treason

A New McCarthy-ist era twice in size

Now it’s up to them and their discretion

Before the whole system is paralyzed

Blind… leading the blind

They’ve dine it once;

they’ll do it again

Speak just one word of it though

If your wish is to be dead…

If your wish is to be dead

Seditions in Peacetime;

gotta watch what you say

Before they show up at your door and drag you away

A clear and present danger… that's so far away

While the proven guilty are sentenced to stay

Resistance to the law is put to the test

Next in line for persecution and arrest

You’re next for arrest!

Silence his screams

He’s introducing a panic

Formulating a fervor

In pursuit of the moles and spies…

Seditions in Peacetime!

Six feet under are those who’d protest

Freedoms completely restricted

Those who died… consider them blessed
