Crimes Against Humanity
Toxins, pollutants and poisonous gasses
without notice take their toll on the masses
air becomes thicker than the water we drink
people unaware of the spread of disease
smoke fills the sky and the sun disappears
rain from above is like acid filled tears
the fragile balance of sky and earth has been altered
forever harmony disturbed
Towering temples of modernization
megatropolis monument to civilization
pollution and waste is direct indication
to the growing problem of the world's situation
smoke fills the sky the sun disappears
rain from above is like acid filled tears
the fragile balance of sky and earth has been altered
forever harmony disturbed
What will it take to make us see
these are crimes against humanity
not only you, not only me but even our future society
these are crimes against humanity
Pain and suffering are what can be found
violence and hatred are what abound
building the weapons that we can't use
can't we see they have only one use
we need more compassion not more war planes
are we so blind uncaring insane
brought into this world with nothing
and with nothing we're destined to depart
What will it take to make us see
these are crimes against humanity
not only you, not only me but even our future society
these are crimes against humanity
Crimes against humanity
A great song that classifies the problems of devastating development, pollution and destruction of the environment and nuclear armament as crimes against humanity. Indeed. It's a war crime against nature and consequently against humanity because we both (ecosystems and humans) suffer.
The American Way
Truth and honor faith and pride
all convictions surely died
honesties time has passed
time for lies is here at last
truth is false I'm so fed up
how did we come to be so fucked
hate fear pain death
all our country has got left
Talk to children hear them say
daddy left again today
brother steals and mommy lies
future lost before their eyes
the sun was lost behind the clouds
they rapped it up and blacked it out
acid rain fell today
it came and washed our hopes away
This was once the land of dreams
now these dreams have turned to greed
in the midst of all this wealth
the poor are left to help themselves
a capitalist's democracy
no one said that freedom's free lady
liberty rots away no truth,
no justice the American way
Don't look past your t.v.
all of us are what you see
a looking glass into our lives
what we watch is what we buy
priorities are out of whack
who is next to stab our back
doesn't it make you mad
to have lost all that we've had
This was once the land of dreams
now these dreams have turned to greed
in the midst of all this wealth
the poor are left to help themselves
a capitalist's democracy
no one said that freedom's free lady
liberty rots away no truth,
no justice the American way
Doesn't it fill you with disgust
that there's no one left to trust
is this happening is this real
my body numb I cannot feel
are you happy are you sad
are emotions a thing of the past
I have no tears I cannot cry
no one mourns for a world that's died
This was once the land of dreams
now these dreams have turned to greed
in the midst of all this wealth
the poor are left to help themselves
a capitalist's democracy
no one said that freedom's free lady
liberty rots away no truth,
no justice the American way
A song that reveals the falsification of American dream: The king is nude, and hypocrisy prevails, plastic human relations, consumerism, social injustice, corruption, fake democracy and pollution are the main traits of american society.
You can hear these songs among others in myspace
