Remedy Drive Pax Melodiam lyrics
Pax Melodiam
Remedy Drive
GENRE
[Verse 1]
She's a melody inside of a prophet's dream
Her song is often the nightmares of the kings
Colonizers, superpowers, reichs, califates
With blindfolded eyes in the city gates
From the slave quarters at Monticello
Or on the caged border, look what we fell for
With the Congolese children in the Belgian colonies
Or the Hebrew slaves under the scepter of Ramses
Belshazzar like Kony like Leopold
Jackson, Cyrus, Cesar or Nero
Forever weighed in the balance and found wanting
Blood cries from the ground haunting
A whispered melody on a child's lips
Detained in the hull of a cargo ship
From the Cherokee child on the Trail of Tears
Her rhythm lingers, prevails throughout the years
[Chorus]
Softly in the midnight air
Sometimes I can hear her prayer
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
She sings to turn the tide and dreams
Of justice like a mighty stream
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Verse 2]
It's the same empire, it's the same disgrace
This unholy spirit with a new face
Inside a new host body, under a new creed
The carnage corruption, the same greed
Like pax romana at the edge of a sword or
With toxic tears to flaunt law and order
Like Babylon of old, it's the same beast
Maybe pax americana is a fake peace (Uh)
[Chorus]
Softly in the midnight air
Sometimes I can hear her prayer
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
She sings to turn the tide and dreams
Of justice like a mighty stream
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
[Instrumental Outro]
