Blame the Dead Lyrics by Ovtlier

2022

[Intro]
Suffering shown in the form of black and white
Tyranny has people dying in the violent streets
Bureaucracy holds the hands of hypocrisy
[Verse 1]
The opposition misguided by the sermons of our politicians
Who never face the consequence of their decisions
Creating a division
The cycle repeats and the stains never fade away
Faithful are the wounds of a friend
Iron sharpens the iron
[Chorus]
Why can't we break the cycle?
Sacrifice pride to find common ground
Beyond the flames and violence
Is the answer to our pain
We have to break the cycle
It's time for change
It's time for change
[Post-Chorus]
Brace yourself
[Verse 2]
We all fall prey to a crooked system
That balances on a world in pain
The daily source of our information
Manipulated for political gain
How can we survive this life
When we always blame the dead?
If we can't put our differences aside
We'll never make it out alive
We're at war with ourselves and it never ends
Placing targets on the backs of our fellow man
Painful are the wounds of our friends
But iron sharpens the iron
[Chorus]
Why can't we break the cycle?
Sacrifice pride to find common ground
Beyond the flames and violence
Is the answer to our pain
We have to break the cycle
It's time for change
[Bridge]
Left, right
It makes no difference
Weak when divided
No longer united
Left, right
It makes no difference
There's strength in numbers
We are the resistance
[Chorus]
Why can't we break the cycle?
Sacrifice pride to find common ground
Beyond the flames and violence
Is the answer to our pain
Why can't we break the cycle?
Sacrifice pride to find common ground
Beyond the flames and violence
Is the answer to our pain
We have to break the cycle
It's time for change
It's time for change
