38th Parallel:Turn The Tides

Verse 1
______________

Staring at the flames as they dance in red
On the corpse of the land
And there in the midst
Are wandering a countless unnamed
Walking hand in hand
Blind leading blind aimlessly into the quicksands of time where they sink
On the brink of eternity cold and alone
Shrink at the festering obscene corruption
And my silence in the face of this mass destruction

Chorus
____________

All rise, abandon your shadows and cut ties to your selfish pride
Fix your eyes on the sun
Get burned on the inside
Turn these tides

(Chorus)

Verse 2
____________

Closed minds ill equipped to deal with the madness
Hearts far to hard to challenge a sadness that's draining
The soul of a generation
Blanketed with tears are faces of nations
Into the quicksands of time where they sink
On the brink of eternity cold and alone
Shrink at the festering obscene corruption
And my silence in the face of this mass destruction

(Chorus) x2

Verse 3
_________

Everyone laughs. Everyone cries. Everyone lives. Everyone dies.
And in between they crawl through stagnate realities
Longing to fly.

(Chorus) x4
