about

The politics are flawed, but it's presented here as evidence of growth. The lack of metaphor in the verses was inspired by Aus-Rotten, and "the empire never ended" is Phillip K Dick. Cody brought the riffs in a big way.

lyrics

A national tragedy is a convenient pretext for perpetual war
For furthering US hegemony in the Middle East
Pipeline wars, economic and military supremacy maintained
Sectarian violence, stirring shit, let them tear each other to bits

The empire never ended, it transformed
Same Praetorians, new uniforms

Addicted to fossil fuels, divide and rule
Mutineers on a ship of fools, divide and rule

Emperors of the shadow dynasty
Divide and rule, divide and rule
A succession of power since antiquity
Divide and rule, divide and rule

Humanitarian crises are a convenient smokescreen for intervention
Shuffle allies, destabilize, fund extremists, redraw maps
Stir the shit, watch them tear each other to bits

The empire never ended, it transformed
Same old Praetorian in new uniforms

Addicted to fossil fuels, Divide and rule
Mutineers on a ship of fools, Divide and rule

Emperors of the shadow dynasty
Divide and rule, divide and rule
A succession of power since antiquity
Divide and rule, divide and rule
