End The Reign - Fishbone

In the darkness, I have found my vision

I’ve seen the queen that thrives on desolation

A queendom that preys on both young and old

Open your eyes

A pain is growing that mocks all true healers

The light of wisdom is making all turn cold

Those who dare to dream can hold no quarter

Open your eyes

Apathy in Babylon, dreams have been deferred so long

Those who dwell in misery, never receive my empathy

No one cares for anyone, the chorus to her fatal song

This woman spites everyone, this woman is man

End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign

The reign, the reign, the reign

I have passion, I have faith and reason

Yet she decrees I am less than human

(The darkness hides within the light)

But it’s my soul that satisfies her hunger

(The evil’s always in your sight)

Open your eyes

When the pretense starts to fall, the prefects make their margin call

Will you join the ranks of sheep, that will not a soul to keep

Their premise is intelligence, profaned by human arrogance

If you stand against it all, make the bastards fall

End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign

The reign, the reign, the reign

End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign

The reign, the reign, the reign

In the world that you perceive, who are your true enemies?

Is it those you do not know or the ones you can’t control

Does joy excite every nerve, from the mistress that you serve

Do you have the strength at all to heed the final call

End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign

The reign, the reign, the reign

End the reign, the reign, the reign, the reign

The reign, the reign, the reign

End the reign

End the reign

End the reign

End the reign
