All The Blank Faces

This country was founded on pillage and rape
From a twist of destiny grew a civilized grace
We bit off a bat's head, we gritted our teeth
Now the battle is over, we can go to sleep

And I'm still here, lost between the ages
Of an ancient culture, and all the blank faces
The modern man separates me from nature
In all the cities I've been to, I've felt like a stranger

Now I bleed ink, I wear my hair
With the utmost pride for all that I revere
My war is myself, in this rotten place
I want to feel something
If it is only hate

And I'm still here, lost between the ages
Of an ancient culture, and all the blank faces
The modern man separates me from nature
In all the cities I've been to, I've felt like a stranger

All the wishes for equality
The northern light still shines for me
The good lie that never ends is dead
The sun that never sets, sets directly on my head

All the wishes for equality
The northern light still shines for me
The good lie that never ends is dead
The sun that never sets, sets directly on my head

And I'm still here, lost between the ages
Of an ancient culture, and all the blank faces
The modern man separates me from nature
In all the cities I've been to, I've felt like a stranger

And I'm still here, lost between the ages
Of an ancient culture, and all the blank faces
The modern man separated from nature
All the cities I've been to, I've felt like a stranger

And I'm still here, lost between the ages
Of an ancient culture, and all the blank faces
The modern man separated from nature
In all the cities I've been to, I've felt like a stranger
