Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges

Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges

Mars once again forces himself upon the world
Polluting and corrupting the innocent
His sabers flash with fire and ice
But it is not in him whom we should lay blame

Jupiter commands all, it his will that is followed blindly
His wishes carried out by the mindless pawns of Terra
The indiscriminate destruction of progress
Harms only the meek, the week, the dead

He talks of justice, of law
He knows nothing but desire and greed
His minions blindly obey & oppress
For the banner of stars they say

The talons of the eagle wrap around the cradle of humanity
Defending freedom, fighting injustice and intolerance,
That is the war cry they preach to the ignorant
This covenant of demokratia who pollute the very ideal

Jupiter is the the judge, the jury and the executioner
But his battle hardened tentacles are the blade
They say the law is a horn, constantly blowing
But old Cicero had it right: Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges
