Description
This song's subtitle is "for the children and families in Beslan". A few years ago, Chechen rebels took over a school in Soviet Georgia and, when they knew that their ploy hadn't worked, they opened fire on the children. Imagine: showing your love for your god.....by butchering kids....
Lyrics
Stand on the brink No longer on the fence We cannot ignore anymore There is no defense They've come for our children In the name of their god Is everybody blind? Don't you see how odd this is? CHORUS- All the bright flowers Cut down as they bloom Placed in a vase of glass Laid upon the table of truth All the bright flowers That smiled at the sun Are hidden away, now, the darkened room stands The table of truth To god you pray Does he ever answer you? What does he tell you? It cannot be true Your path to freedom Is covered in flowers that Lie broken at your feet They are not a crown you wear CHORUS Bridge: And there you sit, preaching god to me, like it's some lie And we sat quietly, watched the world change before our eyes..... CHORUS
