Disindependence

Come, hide all your battle scars
Dispossess weapons of yesterday’s war
Freedom never came for free
Bloodstains never leave the hand that sinned
Good is cursed with a voice
Evil is blessed with a gun
Gunshots speak louder than words
The last laugh is enjoyed by a bullet
Silenced without right
Until Good gives up the fight
When Violence is questioned
Silence becomes the right answer

We are free when we shut our eyes
To the failing world outside
We are free when we shut our ears
To the sound of Injustice’s cheers
We are free when our voices sleep
Inside a dream of corruption and deceit
We are free when we shut our minds
Believe in all the worldly lies
We are free when we believe
That the world is just
We are free when we believe
That in silence we can trust

Happy Independence Day. We are all free.
