The Wasteland
Rising Against the Shadows: A Anthem for Liberation
Lyrics
There is a darkness to the world
There is a pervasive sense of negativity or despair in the world.
Too blind to see
People are unaware or unwilling to see the harsh realities around them.
You can't believe
Doubt and skepticism about accepted beliefs or truths.
That your way of life is dying
A realization that the existing way of life is slowly fading or coming to an end.
Strike at the heart of the machine
Take action against the core of a corrupt system or society.
Dispel the poison
Eliminate the toxic elements that poison society.
Kill the thieves
Combat and eliminate those who steal or corrupt.
The walls of Babylon are falling
The powerful and established structures are collapsing or failing.
So leave me out on my own
Express a desire to be left alone and independent.
Out here where I belong
Claiming a sense of belonging and freedom in solitude.
Believing all you burned will live again
Hope that what has been destroyed will be revived or restored.
We're free and standing strong
A declaration of freedom and resilience in the face of challenges.
Tear down the unknown
Dismantle the unknown or mysterious forces that oppress.
Standing on our own
Assert independence and strength while standing alone.
Your system will be overthrown
Predict the overthrow of the existing system or order.
Your world ground into dust
Foresee a complete destruction of the familiar world.
Bodies covered in ash
Imagery of destruction with bodies covered in ash.
Cities burned to the ground
Cities are razed to the ground, indicating widespread devastation.
Your walls fall down
The fortified structures or defenses are collapsing.
So leave me out on my own
Reiteration of the desire for independence and solitude.
Out here where I belong
Emphasizing the sense of belonging and strength outside societal norms.
Believing all you burned will live again
Hope that what was destroyed will be resurrected or revived.
We're free and standing strong
Declaration of freedom and resilience, standing strong and independent.
