On The Wings Of Pegasus Lyrics - At Dagger's Drawn - Sea Of Treachery

A nation of cowards. 

Our ideals betrayed. 

Tides of injustice. 

Traitors to ourselves. 

Offer my entrails 

as sacrifice to your God, 

and then imagine 

what we could have had. 

A call for justice, 

or a call for treason? 

The universal 

problem-solver. 

Please don't shoot until 

you see the whites 

of their eyes, 

a recurring cry. 

Strap him down and his evils will be reconciled. 

Flip the switch and everything will be alright. 

A nation of cowards. 

Our ideals betrayed. 

Tides of injustice. 

Traitors to ourselves. 

Inject 

the poison 

to make us 

feel safe. 

Inject 

the poison 

to make us 

feel safe. 

Inject 

the poison 

to make us 

feel safe. 

It will crush you, 

shattered teeth and broken bones all in spite of your best intentions. 

It will consume you, 

ruined lives and tortured souls all because of 

your need for a scapegoat. 

I have ignored this carnage for far too long, 

but now my conscience 

has caught up with my heart. 

Has caught up with my 

heart. 

Carry me away 

on wings that cannot fly 

to the land of second chances 

where hope conquers fear. 

Carry me away 

on wings that cannot fly 

to the land of second chances 

where hope conquers fear
