The future will be filled with endless war,
with battles in the name of liberty,
until the world has liberty no more.
The empire is a drunken power whore,
who'll feed on nations till they're all empty.
The future will be filled with endless war,
and even though from war the world is sore,
the world expects more of the Whore to see,
until the world has liberty no more.
Into the hearts of nations she will gore,
not one she'll spare, not one from her could flee.
The future will be filled with endless war,
each one supposed to end another war,
not one remaining nation will be free,
until the world has liberty no more.
She'll force her liberty (who is it for?),
dictating to the world how to be free.
The future will be filled with endless war,
until the world has liberty no more.
(C)2008, Christos Rigakos
