The Plague Of a New Age

What's become of the wars they won?
A price idled population
Speak up for the life left inside our nation
The river runs red

It's black at the bottom and there we know nothing
Where the souls of the forgotten are resting in need
But the human race and the fate on which they prey are dying today
In the plague of a new age

Pile the bodies up, burn them when they're young
We'll still be singing, the sorrow lives on
Take your part of the blame

Find your fix, take what you can
Steal from the palm of a dying hand
We bleed on the flag, we murdered the land, broken our way
It's time to take your part of the blame

Cancer feeds (Cancer feeds)
Hatred breeds (Hatred breeds)
The children cry themselves to sleep
Cancer feeds (Cancer feeds)
Hatred breeds (Hatred breeds)
The children cry themselves to sleep

I'll hold my own, unbroken and better off
Our plight to save, reside the stray
There's nothing left but tyranny

I'll find the truth in the end, I'm not dying again
I'm hurt but surviving decent
It's black at the bottom and there we know nothing
Where the sould of the forgotten are resting in need
But the human race and the fate on which they pray are dying today
In the plague of a new age
But the human race and the fate on which they pray are dying today
In the plague of a new age

We've got nothing to lose
We've got nothing to gain
We've got nothing to lose
We've got nothing again
