Masokist - Nuclear Retaliation (LYRICS) - Video
PUBLISHED:  Jun 20, 2012
DESCRIPTION:
Lyrics:
Why?
Why must the good die young?
Sending the well-intended ones only to come back dead or bleeding...?
Why are my friends off to die --
Just for the benefit of a tyrant's gain?

A country full of dumb dopes
Who blindly go along with what they've been told
Gullible, believers of the warmonger
The unintended consequences will soon unfold

Lies -- continuously fed to the people,
An idea for which they've easily been sold
I look around and get a feeling so weird
Confused how people blindly go along

Right away, I knew something is up
It's not to spread democracy, it's demagoging in its purest form
Sooner they realize, the better off we will be
Though many times I've tried, I'm ignored
and left without hope to save us.

How are we fighting for the greater good
(When we're fucking up a country's infrastructure?)
Subject them to death and confinement which
only incites more hatred as we bring death and torture
When will we ever learn? (Nuclear Retaliation)

Doomed...

Why must you let your minds become feeble?
How can we protect us as we keep bombing innocent people?
Why must you let your minds become feeble?
Believing a peaceful world can be achieved through war?

The images of men, women, and children lying dead on the streets
As you turn away and continue living in apathy
The blood on your hands is knee deep
So much for being the land of the free...

Decided to make this video to celebrate the good times me and my buddies had being in this band. Yes, I know, we aren't the greatest, but we had a shit ton of fun memories.

For those wondering, me and the crew were very libertarian minded when we started to shift towards brutal death metal/grind. We were once a comedic grindcore band who's lyrics were sarcastic, at times distasteful, but later shifted towards spreading the message of peace and the libertarian school of thought.

We had songs like Drug Driven Pigsty, Jam The Joints, and Fallacy of Democracy that were about the war on drugs, the possibility of having a tyrannical government by a democratic system, a non-interventionalist foreign policy, and the Federal Reserve. We would've loved to have them recorded as they were more catchier and technical than our previous records, but we ended up putting things on hold as we had important things to tend to. Hopefully we'll be back.
