The Village Protests

In the hush of the night, I confessed

All the pain that my silence oppressed

There's no peace where my memories rest

Give us water, the village protests

We want water

Stop the slaughter

She's your daughter

Devil brought her

In the morning, my memory's gone

Left without the strength to go on

Stolen by the ghost of the dawn

Now the village cries out as one

Dreams are broken

Truth unspoken

Porthville's token

Demons woken

Now you leave us son choice anymore

All that's left is to fight for the poor

Brace yourself for our deafening roar

No more choice here, the drums of the war

We want water

Stop the slaughter

She's your daughter

Devil brought her

In the hush of the night, I confessed

All the pain that my silence oppressed

There's no peace where my memories rest

Give us water, the village protests

Wealth and oil our unwelcomed guest

Father, you brought the ultimate test
