A Barbaric Time Lyrics

Step out of nowhere

To home but archaea

Cars skirting streets of confusion

Paved with dust

No ladies or lords

But on silver screens

The economically trodden

With eyes cast down

Is this the time or place

A shot in a million

Playing against odds

What hope for success

With so much uncertainty

In a jungle sans camouflage

When thievery is necessary

Not just for you and me

Zeitgeist of depression

Child of recession

The chaos of history

And mad repetition

Of people who won't learn

On the run from the the law

Just for trying to live

When money's to be had

And there's none to give

Remember lady justice

Where does she hide today

We've entered a barbaric time

Where it's kill or be killed and get ahead

With unrest in the west

And the world on the brink of war

Yet again
