War
Rise Against Apathy: Unveiling Society's Chains through Ghastly Sound's 'War'
Lyrics
Wage war
Initiate a conflict or struggle
On apathy
Fight against indifference or lack of interest
Disguised as entropy
Hidden behind disorder or chaos
Defined by society’s expectations
Shaped by the societal expectations
Your move
It's your turn to act
Don’t atrophy
Don't waste away or weaken
This time it’s you and me
This time the conflict involves you and me
No lie, I won’t ever let you let the bastards win
I promise not to let you succumb to the oppressors
The lock is broken
A barrier is removed
Now we’re finally free
Now we are liberated
The gates are open
Access is granted, but it comes with brutal honesty
Death by honesty
Consequence of being truthful is death
Wage war
Engage in a conflict again
On apathy
Against indifference once more
Disguised as entropy
Cloaked in disorder or chaos
Defined by society’s lack of expectations
Shaped by society's lack of expectations
The lock is broken
Another barrier is removed
Now we’re finally free
Another sense of liberation
The gun is smoking
A weapon has been used
Death by honesty
Consequence of being brutally honest
So what will you do with your freedom?
Questioning the choices made with newfound freedom
If knowledge is power then why do I feel numb?
Despite having knowledge, feeling emotionally numb
The closer to happiness I get
As happiness approaches, internal disintegration intensifies
The more I come undone
Increasingly falling apart
Face down the barrel
Facing a threatening situation directly
Caught staring at the center of the sun
Caught in a challenging or intense experience
I feel it deep in my marrow
Feeling something profoundly at a fundamental level
The truth hurts but enough is enough
Recognizing the painful truth, deciding it's enough
War on apathy
Continuing the battle against indifference
