In The Name Of Progression

rain of death falls down.
potuted by this so called technology.
murdering to succeed. not seeing the price that has been paid.
in the name, in the name of progression
industrial insanity forces us to follow
we die they prosper only in death can we stop supporting them
only in death can they not have their way with using the name of progression
if it was real progression greed would not dictate our souls
if it was real progression we'd give back what we stole
if it was real progression we'd burn these lies all down
in the name of progression.
