Cry For the Country

Cry for the country
The country of the dead
Cry for those whose thoughts have died
Who believe only thoughts given them
By those who would rule them

Cry for the country
The country of the dead
Cry for the death of knowledge
That was killed for the sake of fear
Fear used to control them

Cry for the country
The country of the dead
Cry for the death of freedom
Taken from them as they did nothing
Their paranoia rising above reason

Cry for the country
The country of the dead
Cry for the country neglected
The country that can still be saved
If only the dead would awake to save it
