Infertile Ground
From solitude we watch it burn Both sides go to uprising in turn Pushing farther apart A magnified blur It's harder to see the righteous mind to believe or the right side of history And we'll burn it down We burn it down to infertile ground Dirt. Ashes to violent soil You haven't lived long enough to read the book that you'll burn If you efface the slur there's no lesson to learn? Shame awakened to barren earth It's hard to believe in reason for the reprieve and revising history And we'll burn it down We'll burn it down to infertile ground Disavowed until we are clean and free of doubt Run for your life From Letras Mania
