The Rebel Spell - Ten Thousand Years lyrics

I’ve read about brutality through history by agents of every form of state. I know that nothing’s changed and their roles and means are just the same Do you really think we can fix this thing? It’s been tried again and again 10,000 years! Just the same! Until they burn, this won’t change! Move! Move! Move! Push back or be knocked flat Move! Move! Move! Or you’re just in the way Move! Move! Move! If you keep loving our captors the future is just more murder and beatings From ancient Greece to New Orleans armed sadists rule the street Since the first of these legions walked there has always been a “few bad cops” You think you see a helpful soul? I just see an enemy soldier 10,000 years! Just the same! Until they burn, this won’t change! 10,000 years! Inflicting pain! If they reform then burn again Jeffrey Miller, Paul Boyd, Two unnamed dead in Winnipeg Oscar Grant, Rodney Jackson, Ian Bush and Darren Varley Sharpeville, Marikana, Kent State, not close enough? Boom Boom Boom Guess who’s at your door? “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face – forever” [George Orwell]
