Sparks of the Tempest

The sparks of the tempest rage a hundred years on
 The voice of the dreamer screams, the cause of the pawn
 The King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same
 The difference between us is a part of the game
 Darkness is spreading like a spot on the sun
 The dead are the living in age of the gun
 While everyone clamors for the justice they seek
 The world is corrupted and the strong take the weak
 They mold you and shape you, they watch what you do
 The sparks of the tempest are burnin' you through
 Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain
 Though they may promise, they only bring pain
 The future is managed, and your freedom's a joke
 You don't know the difference as you put on the yoke
 The less that you know, more you fall into place
 A cog in the wheel, there is no soul in your face
 Run for the cover, Millennium's here
 Bearing the standard of confusion and fear
 Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain
 Though they may promise, they only bring pain
 Blood in the sand, cry in the street
 Now the cycle is nearly complete
 Ten thousand years, nothing was learned
 No turning back, now the wheel has turned
 Big brother is watching and he likes what he sees
 A world for the taking, when he's ready to squeeze
 King and the Queen are gone, each piece is the same
 The difference between us is a part of the game
 Soothsayer saying now tell me no lies
 What is the madness that is filling the skies
 Spreading like wildfire, fallin' like rain
 Though they may promise, they only bring pain
