Open Wounds X Lyrics - R-mean

A bit of mystery lies in history's eyes 

Cuz in time the facts and the figures get twisted with lies 

The devil tried to kiss us goodnight 

But he hides 

That's how a proven fact is simply denied 

I am a victim - a victim of time 

Victimized by the victory of viciousness the system revised 

They say a century's passed - nothing can bring them to life 

I say our memories last - at least admit to your crimes 

I try to look these little kids in their eyes 

As they're watching their mother's demise 

She's cut - blood drips from her thighs 

She was pregnant - they're ripping her stomach - it's slit from the sides 

Just so they could guess on the sex of the kid that's inside 

They had us walking and walk in the blistering sun 

Sands of the deserts as far as our vision can run 

They had us walking in circles - walk till we starve 

Oh Lord, I hate 'em! - Forgive me, it's wrong but I'm scarred 

They planted the seeds of hate in my heart - it keeps growing 

My heartbeat's slowing 

My heart just keeps hoping 

Cuz we'll never - ever! - give up on our cause 

Cuz we owe it to all the people we lost. 

by Soseh ("Kilikia")

Refuse to give in - our wounds are dripping like bloody hell 

From brutal whippings to crucifixions with rusty nails 

But who will listen 

The truth is hidden 

Massacres and cruel killings 

To snatching our future kingdom and commonwealth 

But where is the promised help? 

They distance 'em from it 

Well, is this what you wanted? 

Man, it's just making me sick to my stomach 

Cuz Hitler has done it afterwards 

Following the Ottoman's example - can you handle me quoting this bastard's words? 

Cuz see in '39 this' how your friend spoke: 

"After all, who remembers Armenians today" - end quote 

Forgive and forget? - No 

History repeats - this leach is draining us - let go! 

This battle against hope 

We gather around 

We light our candles in crowds 

These tears land on the ground 

Each year standing so proud 

Together we holding banners and shout 

But it's spreading thru empty space that doesn't travel the sound? 

Nobody wants to hear us! The population just can't see thru the mess 

The way you treat one case determines what people do next 

Souls can't peacefully rest 

Till the killer's secret's confessed 

Buried in our holy lands that we now don't even possess 

It's taken 

Pardon my phrases, I'm blatant 

But all these nations are shaking the arms of Satan for the sake of army bases 

We're praying to God to make 'em admit it - we're still hoping 

But they still won't and that's why these wounds are still open.
