Ahimsa Lyrics

Persecution is not a value I wish to instill. Your freedom means nothing when the heart kills. Confront this father figure. Repent the suffering. With indignant eyes hollowed out to see the dead survive. Our cries for sympathy bleed in our darkest hour. Let the vengeance rain down on me. Let this wrath satiate my being. Conform to the christ figure I defy. With an act of mercy I cry. If I am saved, if I am healed, then why am I not free? Hardened heart brings a cold fist. This god complex will never miss. Bend to break the structure. Bleed to make me believe. Subject yourself to violent action, we are what we see. Don't turn away and run, you will never see it coming. If I am saved, if I am healed, then why am I not free? I have learned to deny what has been forced onto me. A course tongue favors ascension. Speak the evil truth with which we crave. The demon lies with incantation. Buried instincts sends us to our grave. Raise the dead. Lift the veil. Complete the cycle of redemption.
