What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I am not he, nor master, nor lord
2
No crown to wear, no cross to bear in stations
3
I am not he, nor shall be, warlord of nations
4
These heroes have run before me, now dead upon the flesh piles, see?
5
Waiting for their promised resurrection, there is none
6
Nothing but the marker, crown or cross
7
In stone upon these graves
8
Promise of the ribbon was all it took
9
Where only the strap would leave it's mark upon these slaves
10
What flag to thrust into this flesh, rag, bandage,
11
Mop in their flowing death
12
Taken aside, they were pointed a way, for god, queen and country
13
Now in silence they lie
14
They ran before these masters, children of sorrow
15
As slaves to that trilogy they had no future
16
They believed in democracy, freedom of speech
17
Yet dead on the flesh piles I hear no breath
18
I hear no hope, no whisper of faith
19
From those who have died for some others' privilege
20
Out from your palaces, princes and queens
21
Out from your churches, you clergy, you christs
22
I'll neither live nor die for your dreams
23
I'll make no subscription to your paradise
