An Act Of Acquiescence

Midnight -See them burning crosses upon the hill,And with the flames fades all persistence, resistance.Maybe a rational observer can explaynWhat eyes were unable to see:I can remember a fortress in the sunWith wall as strong as an idealYet I remember temptation calling,Setting the battlement ablaze -relentlesslyWalking in silence a scepric spoke in rhymes:"Existence in resistance needs alot of persistence,To swim against the streams, to walk against windsOf agitation and elude the pride that united and divides."What kind of euphoria made our hearts impervious?Sunrise - No cross is left, a witch-hund neatly done.And with the daylight we are one in our vain pride.Can't deviate from the norm that makes us common and conformFaintly we recall a brighter yesterday.I can remember a for fortress left in flamesWith walls as trifling as an idealI can remember acquiescence.[Lyrics: M. Steffen]
