Goliath - Assemblage 23

A shattered dream

A future withered on the vine

A lie upon which we agreed

A tinderbox

A growing anger taking hold

A storm of discontent and need

Division grows, Goliath falls

Which city’s going to burn tonight?

Wipe the blood from off your brow

And set the funeral pyres alight

An angry mob

That slowly grew into an army

A blaze that raged out of control

A rising tide

The rivers overflowed their banks

A vow to take back what is owed

Division grows, Goliath falls

Which city’s going to burn tonight?

Wipe the blood from off your brow

And set the funeral pyres alight

Inequity

A way to subdue and divide

Excise and keep the people weak

The guillotine

Will teach them all about division

The Earth acquired by the meek

Division grows, Goliath falls

Which city’s going to burn tonight?

Wipe the blood from off your brow

And set the funeral pyres alight
