Nautical lyrics Protest The Hero

Nautical


The day that civil glory dismembered my civility
I could have parted ribs and flesh like a different kind of Red Sea
Drowned the ancient east in western progress
Custom and the least of all our pride and sentiments
Which turned out to be the closest thing to a fashion trend
That's ever been put on trial
Which turned out to be the closest thing to a fashion trend
That's ever been put on trial
The rest was cast off as denial of statehood and mastery;
The ultimate form of treason is the treacherous use of reason
Employed by the bastard sons of American fore-fathers who keep this fire burning
With the flesh of their would-be American daughters, daughters, daughters, daughters!!

What will happen to our children when the least of us pass on?
Us who fought the monsters of our country's crowded closet
Us who dropped the bombs on goodness when we saw it wasn't flawless
Us whose youthful life was hostage to what harm did
Us who fought the hardest to be swept under the carpet

And I'm still a cigarette softly smoking on the edge of a metal ashtray
I begged this place to let me burn, and it whispered, "burn away"

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 

The lyrics NAUTICAL of PROTEST THE HERO is also present in the album Kezia (2005)

Biografia

Protest the Hero è una band canadese di progressive metal/mathcore proveniente da Whitby, Ontario. Formatisi nel 1999, i membri hanno mantenuto la stessa formazione sin dagli inizi. Inizialmente chiamati Happy Go Lucky, hanno cambiato nome prima dell'uscita del loro primo EP, *A Calculated Use of Sound*, seguito dall'album di debutto completo, *Kezia*, pubblicato dall'etichetta indipendente Underground Operations. Il 23 gennaio 2006, la band ha firmato ufficialmente con Vagrant Records per il rilascio statunitense di *Kezia*, uscito negli Stati Uniti il 4 aprile 2006. Il loro secondo album in studio, *Fortress*, è stato ufficialmente pubblicato da Underground Operations in Canada e da Vagrant Records in tutto il mondo il 29 gennaio 2008. La band è nota per la sua musica complessa e virtuosistica, che combina elementi di metal progressivo, mathcore e post-hardcore. I loro testi spesso esplorano temi filosofici, esistenziali e sociali.
