lyrics

When development leads to pejoration
Progress trap hidden beneath reward
Advise searched in all connotations
Find vigilant warnings to discard

Servants kneeling to the empire
Worthless nationalism restrained by culture

The pride to follow the violent tradition
(The pride to follow the violent tradition)

Principles to separate the globe
Obscene conceits to conquer frontiers

(Mindless symbolism)
The coward sacrifice
Dignified as heroic

Useless as to administer medicine to the dead

(To administer medicine to the dead)

Nothing humble in bragging modesty
Venerate the murders among pawns
Fruitless honor to trust the enemy
Gratitude between opposite crowns

What a waste of golden opportunity
A barbaric way to defend a country

Lacking the true courage of a contrarian
(Lacking the true courage of a contrarian)

To birg and corf as an habitus
Can't break the chains of orthodoxy

(Mindless symbolism)
The coward sacrifice
Dignified as heroic

Useless as to administer medicine to the dead

(To administer medicine to the dead)

For we must now create a deviance to their norm

A cognitive dissonance to the ideas they conform

Worthless symbolic capital
