Lyrics
Silence is golden
Silence is valuable or preferable.
Ingnorance bliss
Not knowing the truth is comforting.
Better off not asking
It's better not to inquire about things you'd rather forget.
What you'd rather forget
Avoid confronting unpleasant memories.
And as the vice grip choke holds
A metaphorical description of oppressive control.
All of our freedoms are meeting their end
Freedoms are diminishing due to a tightening grip.
And for the wars they wage
Reference to the destructive consequences of wars.
Numberless troops lie wounded or dead
Many soldiers suffer injuries or death in wars.
The beatings will continue
Abuse will persist until morale improves sarcastically.
Until morale improves
Indicates an absurd approach to improving morale.
Free your hate
Encouragement to release and express one's hatred.
Crusade in the days of rage
Advocacy for a passionate revolt during times of anger.
Perilous folly
Warning against dangerous foolishness.
Rise up against your fate
Call to resist and defy predetermined destiny.
Free your hate
Reiteration of the need to free one's hatred.
Crusade in the days of rage
Emphasizes the importance of resistance during rage.
Tireless cunning
Doing so with tireless cleverness and strategy.
Stampede and break your chains
Urges to break free from restrictive influences.
Terror at gunpoint
Describes fear and coercion through armed force.
Torture at large
Highlighting the prevalence of widespread torture.
Enemy combatant
Labeling individuals as threats without due process.
Labeled a threat
Being identified as an enemy without evidence.
Without trial or charge
Subjected to judgment without a fair trial or accusation.
Repetition of history
Drawing parallels with historical patterns repeating.
Messenger, prophet, martyr for god
Role of messenger, prophet, and martyr for a cause.
All for once and for all
Enduring hardships for a singular purpose.
Reclaim your power
Encouraging the reclaiming of personal power.
The tyrant must fall
Asserting the necessity for the downfall of a tyrant.
The beatings will continue
A sarcastic repetition of abusive practices until improvement.
Until morale improves
Continuation of the ironic statement about morale improvement.
