lyrics

INERTIA
In the shadows, we seek
that which carries caution.
Learned ones become weak
under threat and suspicion.
All along, the truths lay bare
seeds of doubt sown by inane questions.
Consumed by dark defiance there,
some live lives wrought with hesitation.

(*Chorus*)
Embrace veracity and basic fact
that no one man is an island.
It's obsolete, so dissolve the pact.
For the wise seek peace, not violence.

Awaiting illusions--"Mysterious Ways."
Conclusions of self-fashioned divine.
Dictations on living out ones days.
Frozen in fearful inertia, they await "The Sign."
We're told it's healthy to fear,
that in our trust, life is complacence.
The book we love, hold its words dear.
Faith locked tight--static, staid in patience.

Rely On The Wise,
For They Seek Peace.
They seek peace.
Rely On The Wise,
For then shall we Rise...
and bring peace.
So let's rise,
and bring peace,
Together.
