Blank Check
Blank Check: Unveiling the Toll of Endless Wars
Lyrics
There is nothing a war can build
War does not create anything positive or constructive.
Just a number of graves to fill
War results in a growing number of graves without meaningful purpose.
Nothing left at the end of the day
At the end of the day, there is nothing valuable or substantial left.
To make it all worth while
There is a lack of meaningful outcomes to justify the sacrifices made in war.
Nothing you could ever say
No words or expressions can make the consequences of war acceptable.
To the innocent lost in the fire
Reference to innocent people being casualties of war.
Clash of titans
Reference to powerful entities or nations in conflict.
Clash of egos
Conflict driven by inflated and self-centered personalities.
Destroying homes
War destroys homes and communities.
Invent new foes
New enemies are constantly created.
Stack the deck in your direction
Rigging situations to favor one's own interests.
Violent global self projection
Using violence to project power on a global scale.
Peace met with a stiff rejection
Attempts at peace are dismissed or rejected.
Talking heads offer no protection
Media and authoritative figures offer no real protection or solutions.
They're all for the insurrection
Supporting or advocating for a rebellion or uprising.
Release the funding no objection
Financial support is provided without objections to fuel conflict.
Go
A call to action or a command to proceed.
Fighting
Engaging in continuous battles.
An endless war
War is portrayed as an unending conflict.
Reason thrown
Logic and rationale are discarded.
Right out the door
Emphasis on the disregard for what is right or just.
Kindness
Compassion and benevolence are considered unaffordable.
We can not afford
Even in the face of war, kindness is seen as a luxury.
While we're all funding
People are collectively supporting and financing an ongoing war.
The endless war
Reinforces the idea of an unending conflict fueled by continuous funding.
