Stand Down
Stand Down: Unveiling the Catastrophe of Ignorance
Lyrics
I see this army of the ill informed
I observe a group of people lacking knowledge or awareness
Out for blood, out for war
They are seeking conflict and violence
Born innocent, adopt this ignorance
Initially innocent, they embrace ignorance willingly
You’ve got nothing to say
They have no meaningful contribution or perspective
Stand down
An imperative to cease aggressive actions
Lock, stock, in shackles you rot
Imprisoned, you deteriorate without blaming the supposedly sane
Don’t blame the so called sane
Do not blame those considered rational
What have you got?
What do you possess?
Not much; tunnel vision and persistence to do it again and again
Not much; a narrow focus and persistence in repeating mistakes
Echo chambers revolving
Enclosed spaces where like-minded individuals reinforce each other
Your narrow mind is loaded
Your limited perspective is fueled with preconceived notions
For you I’ll spin it, again and again
For you, I will repeat these ideas again and again
It’s a catastrophe
Referring to a disastrous situation
We saw it coming
We predicted it
Blind to the logic
Blind to reason and rationale
Dying to disprove it
Willing to die to disprove logic
We’re fighting fire with fire
Responding to aggression with more aggression
Stand down
Reiteration of the command to stand down
It’s a catastrophe
Highlighting the catastrophic nature of the situation
We did nothing
We took no action
Lies to deliver
Lies being spread
Finger on the trigger
A potential for destructive actions
If you’ve got nothing to say
If you lack meaningful input
Stand down
Repeat of the command to stand down
No chance for the truth to prevail here
No opportunity for the truth to prevail when surrounded by degenerates
When you’re surrounded by fucking degenerates
Expression of frustration with the company of morally corrupt individuals
Echo chambers revolving
Reiteration of enclosed spaces with like-minded individuals
Your narrow mind is loaded
Your narrow perspective is filled with preconceived notions
For you I’ll spin it, again and again and again
Continued repetition of ideas for the closed-minded
And now you’re dead to the world
Emphasizing the isolation from the rest of the world
I see this army of the ill informed
Repetition of the observation of a group lacking knowledge
Out for blood, out for war
Reiteration of the desire for conflict and war
Born innocent, adopted ignorance
Correction in lyrics - "adopted ignorance"
You’ve got nothing to say to me
They have nothing meaningful to communicate
I hold myself in contempt
The speaker holds themselves in contempt
For all those that I resent
Expressing disdain for those they resent
As the tragedy unfolds
As a tragic event unfolds
And all their stories are told
All stories are revealed
The world has seen this before
This situation has occurred before in history
Now watch as the words start to fail you
Observing the failure of words to have an impact
The world has seen this before
Recurrence of a historical pattern
How could we all just ignore?
Questioning how everyone could ignore the pattern
