Lyrics
Feeding on the tension
Feeling the intensity of the atmosphere
Boiling all around
Intense emotions permeating the surroundings
Truth or propaganda
Questioning the distinction between truth and propaganda
Monuments burn down
Notable structures or symbols being destroyed
Searching for a beacon
Seeking a guiding light or stable point
An anchor to behold
A secure and significant point of reference
But in the open market
Challenges in finding authenticity in a competitive environment
Even sellers will be sold
Even those selling ideas or values may be deceived or influenced
I found a bayonet
Discovering a bayonet, a weapon, possibly symbolizing conflict
In brackish water
In polluted water, suggesting a tarnished or contaminated discovery
A relic from the war
An artifact from a past conflict
A reminder of the slaughter
A reminder of a violent and destructive event
Sunning on the ruins
Relaxing amidst the aftermath of destruction
Zealots on parade
Fanatics parading, showcasing their beliefs
Their cheerleaders are all ringers
Supporters or advocates who are merely imitating or copying
Preening in the shade
Displaying arrogance in a protected or comfortable position
Marching with the masses
Moving along with the crowd
Corpses on display
Dead bodies exhibited for public view
Why disguise the punch line
Questioning the need for disguising the obvious outcome
When their maker has been made
When the creator or source has been identified or exposed
I found a bayonet
Finding another bayonet, possibly implying ongoing conflict
In brackish water
In polluted water, reiterating the tarnished nature of the find
A relic from the war
A relic from a previous war, underscoring historical violence
A reminder of the slaughter
Reinforcing the memory of past brutality
Truth isn't static
Highlighting the dynamic and evolving nature of truth
It struggles like the wind
Truth is in constant flux and contention, similar to the wind
And if death is the price of paradise
Suggesting a high cost for achieving an ideal state
Then death is not the end
Emphasizing that death is not the ultimate conclusion
