The Sadist Nation

One nation under the gun
Where forward thinking is shunned
A morbid tradition of archaic value systems
Where violence justified
Is just another pride

One nation under the gun
Where forward thinking is shunned

Under the surface lies a holy plastic empire
With guarded golden fences
Where misfortune shelters decisions
A pain wrought from blood flowing green

Under the surface lies a holy plastic empire
With guarded golden fences

The myth of protection is a sick fascination
A culture of violence is what you are feeding
Fear is an heirloom and hate is contagious
A nation of sadists is what you are breeding

It's everywhere
Everywhere that you see
But who decides
If you watch or turn the other cheek?

Everywhere
It's everywhere that you see
But who decides
If you watch or turn the other cheek?

And only in your mind
Is it your given right to be armed to the teeth
It's a common disease
The only immunity is to disarm
Where violence justified
Is just another pride

The myth of protection is a sick fascination
A culture of violence is what you are feeding
Fear is an heirloom and hate is contagious
A nation of sadists is what you are breeding

It's everywhere
Everywhere that you see
But who decides
If you watch or turn the other cheek?
