A song about revolutionary regime change along religious lines.

Lyrics

You can leave when I tell you
Breathe only when it is approved
Believe that God can see through
Every thought and spark and move

This is the new regime
Founded on the lack of real dreams
All you feel is moral casing
An alternate scene

No concern for strong opinion
No knowledge of our dominion
That was unjustly given
To an unjust parody

A higher seat I’ve taken
Not sure why it was left vacant
For questions it is too late
This is the new regime

I’ve waited for something with weight
As the day draws near I feel I fall awake

I welcome your protests
From your cell where you cannot rest
You’re hiding under bruises
Art forms dying useless

You’ve a plan for my life at death
An objective too weak to last
I will dangle keys before you
And laugh at your folded hands

Our aggression floats above us
Pushing down and pulling forward
But we’ll sweep it from the table
To instill this new regime

No higher seat is needed
To admit we’ve been defeated
The words get stuck between us
As we fall back to ascend.
