Return to Life - We Were Always Here (Demo)

send this to all your conservative friends :)
~~~

We were always here, it’s not the first time
You’re just fucking blind to your own history
If it isn’t obvious yet, this is genocide
The modern mania, manufactured lies
The new disease designed to eradicate
Calculated fear, only to feed the moral panic again
Fuck your schemes and designs
Painting fictional lines

Which rights will you take next?
Which school or hospital will you send bomb threats to next?
Claim your victimhood
In a way that only you pretentious fuckers could
Label us liars and rapists and thieves
Dehumanize, divide and attack us, please
Show the world your colours and your final intent
Follow your leader to his fucking end

Here lie our souls, on words untold
Sold for a price no hands could hold

Walk reverse, back in line
Forward course, backwards time
No remorse, only lies
What’s diverse has to die
Monochrome, empty life
Hollow shells, hopeless eyes
No more thought, only strife
Broken voice, lonely cries
The fight for acceptance has come to and end
Our very existence is public debate
Unqualified voices they’ve come to defend
It seems every day it’s becoming too late
Over and over they preach our demise
Systemic erasure, a one-sided war
All our mistakes have become televised
And they’ll never stop until we are no more
Cull the weak, ill-prepared
We were killed, no one cared
Dead and gone, never shown
Left to stand on our own

All they ever fought for has become undone
Those who threw the bricks and those who had marched
It’s time to start again
Fuck the politics, they never bothered to care for us
They never bothered at all

Though we might forgive, never we forget
Turned into the pawns in a malevolent display
Taken to the brink, pushed until the edge
Never seen a day our lives were truly ours to claim
We can never be unmade because these colours never fade
Struggle as you may with all this wretched hate
All the elders know the pain, the youth will never break
Time is running out, your cause will never last
Trying to be rid of us will be your worst mistake
