Portrait of numbers you draw your own reflection around the echo of your own decisions
Hide behind your flags to protest your ego / Nationalize your fear, disguise the same old lies
There is no cure for hatred, it can only be annihilated / Our love stamps on your fear, we will protect what we hold dear
Conspiracy of one mind, building theories on lies
They claim innocence when blood lies on their hand / They fake confusion, to hide their hate and fear x 2
Instead everybody observes everyone and the predator goes free
We cannot forget, we cannot forgive / Truth is not just a concept
We cannot forget, we cannot forgive / Our reality cannot be erased
We cannot forget, we cannot forgive / We need to reclaim the fear
We cannot forget, we cannot forgive / We need to reclaim the fear x 2
Instead everybody observes everyone and the predator goes free
The extremist and hateful mob fester in the illusion of equality
Burn the fascist clown x 2
Rotten pages in Cable street / Black shirts beaten by mobs
Don’t let them burn the libraries / Ignorant led by ignorance can’t win
Heard but not listened, actions become meaningless when the wall speaks
Vocal minority of hate mongers / Justifying their paranoia / Denying the existence of difference
They want a white world / Burn the fascists x 8
