Through the Mirror

Through the Mirror
Seems there’s some commotion, starting in town
Wild run emotions, as their blood coats the ground
No innocent are spared, caught in the crossfire
Papers call it a «surge», and send it on the wire
Chorus:
Looking through the mirror, of lies and illusion
The story sold, blurred with delusion
Looking through the mirror, society disintegrates
New Rome has had its run, liberty eviscerates
Distortions of the truth, for an illegal war
No pittance for the lost, lives of the poor
No cost too small, just ignore the flood
When the price of oil, is the price of blood
Appointed misleaders, empire’s formation
Who fix the law, purchased legislation
Gone are the days, of envisioned democracy
Welcome to the land, of the American theocracy
