story behind the song: cynical take on the news etc.
Lyrics
after all the solitudes
of grace and slavery
dreams begot of innocence
of such depravity
taking the moral high ground
believing in what's right
a prisoner of circumstance
pomp and those dark nights
after all the meanings less
definitions of our times
twist, then shout from roof tops
the effervescent lies
taking the moral high road
travelling with high speed
capturing the present
time lapsed events between
after all the love in's, the poetic leaps of faith
after all the peace rallies, those photo op mistakes
after the men in black fill up all the banks
after, the men in grey come to collect our thanks
after the revolution
those thoughts are called to fore
always someone left to drive
the victories off course
taking the morals offroad
the stills to circumvent
wanted like forever
such peace we must prevent
after the liberation
the powers that be decide
always something to defend
using other peoples lives
taking the morals inland
far from any shores
as if they were ever used
and they won't be anymore
after all the love in's, the poetic leaps of faith
after all the peace rallies, those photo op mistakes
after the men in black fill in all the banks
after, the men in grey come to collect in tanks
