True Punishment

Burn the olive branch we extent to the finger pointing generation
Future denied, holy roller
Holding the nail and dropping the hammer
Should the holy fall with a thunderous roar in an empty plot
Should the great power shift from the hands of the law
Should luck permit the hammer fall on an empty chamber, will we suffer for them
or will we suffer them too?
War on the salt of the earth
War on the lives of the young
Will echo throughout time, true punishment
