I'm putting this here because it has to go somewhere.

A mashup of VNV Nation song lyrics...

No more the servants of the weak
Devoid of thought or light to seek.
I'll leave no walls, no stone unturned.
Every tower must be razed
To the dust from which it came.
in water purity reigns to be resolute.
As a land we clean our minds, reap our belongings,
sow our angers and our strengths.
Five minutes at a time the power held true.
Without consternation our laws are lost...lost to narcotic ritual...
And where are the angels to guard?
Where is the God of men and children?
<i?Sever the line to the guilty past,
to the ones who brought us nothing
Spoke of futures brave and proud
and brought only hate and war.
Lined the roads with hollow praise.
Marked the land with paper statues.
And I'm not the only one
who thinks we're trying to say
To the heavens and all who hear us
Behold all we have made
We bring destruction
We bring war without an end
And then we live in hope
That tomorrow never comes
That it never comes.
The problems get worse
Before they get better
We find excuses to divert our eyes
Let tomorrow
Deal with what we could have done
And if you think we're the future
That we build tomorrow
When was the last day without a war
We speak of quickness
That we have never been
We possess the power
If this should start to fall apart
To mend divides to change the world
To reach the farthest star
If we should stay silent
If fear should win our hearts
Our life will have long diminished
Before it reaches the farthest star
Forward go to open seas
The quest it is your master
In time I hope you'll see me as
The one who held you above the waves
So much that you denied yourself
And so much that you never knew
Long realized, the only choice
The empty streets in rain
I had no faith before that day in any vow or deed.
Days followed days and years were meaningless.
Despite the wisdom of defeat
I bore my heart for all to see the wonders I'd seen, the wonders I'd seen...
