Wasteland part 1

 the day broke and the people choked
on the ashes and the carnage and the pillows of smoke
they barely believed with their hypnotic eyes
they awoke with terror to a world they despised
and as the people shouted death to the beast
a war song was playing to the tune of hail to the cheif
it was the day they traded their honesty
they overthrew the people and crowned a new queen
with an iron fist, she became the seven headed beast
they raised up a monster who had won by defeat

"in this wasteland, this no mans land
its a barron world, its a scarred up earth
in this wasteland , give your freedom at the door
you can pay the dues , or be struck to the floor
its a no mans land, ruled by a crown of thorns
all the kings horses and all the kings men
will never ever see the sun again
in this wasteland , its a no mans land"

well they saddled up their tanks
like a brave band of warriors
they rushed on the banks
and sank beneth the shore
they never saw the traps
and they fell through the floor

they say its all fair in love and land wars
the say it best to live and let live , but still settle up the score
reaching out for the golden ring
the executioner cried out and the choir did sing
they killed the hangman ,  and invented the guillotene
now noone can save us, from the horror we raised
and now the bitch is growling and the fires will rage
the blood lust in her eyes as she burns hem at the stake
will someone pinch me , so that i may wake
from this

" wasteland, this no mans land
yes its a wasteland, its a city of flames
this wasteland, its a cruel cruel fate
now all the kings horses and all the kings men
are riding in circles, but never find the end
of all this wasteland, and the queen wins again
the bones in her teeth are crushed to dust
the knight in shining armor is corroded with rust
noone can save us from this wasteland ,
this no mans land"

well the contracts are signed in triplicate and ink
sealing the deal the false prophet gives a wink
peace will reign , if the price is right
so grab a flaming sword or throw your dignity aside
cause theres no escape
the walls are now erected in this city of the damned
they murdered all the doctors , and washed their bloddy hands
concealing the truth, so the public wont mistake
they own the information, they can change it in a blink
keep the distractions flowing, keep the enemy at bay
send the good men off to fight another day
while they sit in their rocking chairs and count their demons wage

" in this wasteland , in this foreign place
this no mans land, where your better in the grave
this wasteland , we made a fatal mistake
paint the picture , and sacrifice your hand
it all will be censored , they will smite you where they stand
they will campaign and advertise cath em in their youth
keep the conspiracy going , so noone can know the truth
inside this wasteland , so sign away
to this wasteland, this paradise for hate
this wasteland, theres no escape"
