A day in August...He set for us;
the judge with a tyrant's tongue
yet he's our only protection
from the snatch-y hands of our creditors
and a sudden wipe off this earth
We don't know how it came to this.
We don't know why it came to this
that our very friends could stab us
right where it hurt the most,
that they could let us drown in waters
infested by loan-sharks.
Feelings must have been mutual
but greed lies behind many faces
Now we search the world with no prevail
We're constantly watching our backs for their dogs,
even a neighbor can't be trusted.
But, how we trust....
when we can't even trust ourselves?
We fight and bicker at any given opportunity
always searching for a dark spot in snow
We hate so fast
We love too slow
We have become exactly what they wanted
despite our innocent conscience,
They're weakening our family ties
for they know of the strength we can have in numbers.
We're growing apart with each rising sun
We're letting them win come that day in August.
