Unrest

A culture divided
The battle two-sided
Humanity's starting to riot

The masses cohere
Motivated by fear
Hate fills the streets
Apprehension forevermore

Never again
We fight for our peace of mind

A violent call to arms
Trial by fire, as we set all hope aside

For reasons unknown
And beyond our control
We lost all we love
And we carry the burden

We fight for our rights
And we fight to survive
Inescapable sentence
But we never asked for this

Never again
We fight for our right to life

A violent call to arms
Trial by fire, as we set all hope aside
Injustice contemptuous
No reparation can undo the damage done

As we stand together
And gaze upon the disarray
Her gaze, it turns to lock with mine
But I turn my eyes to look away

I know that she can feel my pain
She can sense my apprehension
I can see the heartache in her face
A face that I don't recognize

Though we stand together
I have never felt so far from you
How can I trust the one I love
When she can't even trust herself?

A violent call to arms
Trial by fire, as we set all hope aside
Injustice contemptuous
No reparation can undo the damage done
