lyrics

--- Another Generation Deceived (2023) Only available with this release ---

Words:
Seeking asylum from your ignorance
Trying to gain right to remain as far from you as possible
Your argument starved of fact and fueled by the same bile
That made a family flee to be safe

Illegal migration into territories of decency, honor and truth
Your senseless hate never belonged there
Like a swarm of locusts devouring the crop - eroding empathy
Foaming at the mouth with every government policy biased
Broadcast

Deciding that conspiracy and secret invasions are
More likely than documented military attacks
There is no nothing left to say
Wartorn flesh - scarred souls - turn your backs
Never wanted to know or understand
and so it goes on

/

Explanation:
There are some subjects that become tensely debated and this is usually at times where there are other political agendas that lead to them being highlighted as an issue (as a distraction, a bid for greater popularity or as a means to justify failings).
The main point of this song is to highlight that some topics have been argued numerous times but still without resolution. Recently in the UK there has been an increased interest in people seeking asylum, so much has already been said about this topic.
The main expressions within this song is related to feeling intolerant towards this intolerance whilst also feeling that this issue will heighten again in the future and the arguments on both sides will be largely the same. I was thinking about the hypocrisy of those whom lack compassion and are scornful of people seeking asylum as their hatred and prejudice mirrors the roots of the hostilities that created a situation where people have had to leave their home in the first place. The acknowledgment of human suffering is largely absent in the views being expressed by those critical of those seeking safety and instead the emphasis is on feeling that the situation is either a contrived invasion or a simple attempt to take what is theirs.
Of course, the whole time those with much greater wealth and luxury enjoy the fireworks and whilst this issue is reported alongside any difficulties being experienced within the UK at that time as a form of insinuating blame, there are no questions being asked about the significant failings that those in power have received a wage for engineering.
