Mysterious intro, spoken ramblings by Matt

Our leaders write the roles from behind masked faces 



Always hiding the reality of their true intentions 



And like puppets we act out the roles 



Of a tragedy that never ends 



And the plot always thickens as the death rate quickens 



And the human soul sickens with war always the means to the end 



So how many times must Rome burn 



Before the crucial lesson of history is learned? 



Power kills, destroy everything that power builds

You're sucked into place by your own admittance 



Self imposed enslavement 



And though you curse your king how can it mean anything 



When you worship cult of leadership? 



It takes only one to lead but must the rest of us follow? 



The whole is but the sum of it's parts 



Do you act that part? Do you fit that part? 



And how many times will we rebuild Rome 



Only to watch it burn? 



Power is death



Power is Death

These are the elements

Of oppression!
