Savor the silence
and savor the peace,
Half past the hour
they'll be flooding the streets.
Pity them but hate them,
They have doomed us all,
Destroyed all resistance,
Heard their masters call.
Paralyzed those running,
And gagged the ones who speak,
Cut the tongues of rebels,
Whom truth they chose to seek.
Mount Zion will not save you,
The Messiah has not come,
Cut free from all deception,
Or bow down, broken, numb.
