...and so We Rise Songtext
von Torn Open

I wake beneath a screenlit dawn
Where truth was sold and faith was drawn
The choir hums in pixel tongues
And every thought′s a loaded gun
Thought's a loaded gun

End is near
There′s no change
Hands bathed in blood

Faith worn thin
Instilled Fear
Trust soiled to none

Discursive
Disgraceful
Verbose promise

Hollow words
Unity
Conscious as one

Will we forever make one, or just surrender?
It might be too late before they realize


Grieving won't relieve
The need to be
A blinded nationalist devotee
Bloodshed will command their plunder

Revel in your
God given prosperity
And remain quiet
Or remember we are not outnumbered

Burn it to the ground, benevolent forces arise

We must learn to unify
Abandoned and left to die
Abject businessmen won't listen to our collective cry

We must revolt for our change
Life cannot remain the same
Workers of the world you have nothing more to lose but your chains

So keeping defending evil forces
Behind the wall of ignorance

It is our time to reclaim
Mother nature′s gifts
Perseverance will sing


Everything is over for you
Exposed with the lies, untold
I won′t allow vindication
The eradication is now

We saw
How It all began
Now is our chance
To push upward and onward

Revolution
The locomotive of history
Of peace and harmony
