Nocturne - It Burns Lyrics
(Music and Lyrics by Chris Telkes)It doesn't matterIf you're right or wrongIf you're not like the othersThen you don't belongAnd if you don't live like they want you toThere's some re-education awaiting youAnd it burns Â
You were told not to think that it's best to prayThe one's with ideas were all led awayAnd those who were watching brimmed up with hateThey were learning the meaning of police-stateAnd it burnedÂ
The village was burning the brightest flameThe men were all slaughtered in heaven's nameThe women were hanging from the highest treesThe priests were all praying on skinless kneesAnd it burnedÂ
ReprogrammedBy the stateReprogrammedStripped of hateReprogrammedThey recreateReprogrammedTo subjugateAnd all the pigs and soldiers sang,ÂDon't blame me, I'm not in controlDon't blame me I just do what I'm told.Â
