VNV Nation - Judgement

BTW, if you have NOT checked out the new VNV Nation album, you need to. The first half of the album is quite possibly VNV Nation at its finest, damned near rivaling Praise the Fallen and Futureperfect for their best work yet.

Here is a quick taste

Those who shout loudest impose their will
Upholding laws that serve a few
Declaring peace while the sirens sing
In the name of progress,
In the name of madness
Drum beats faster
Crowd shouts louder
and chaos replaces order

I want justice for a voice that can't be heard
Vindication for every suffering and hurt
Let retribution hold dominion over earth
Because judgment day's not coming Judgement day's not coming
soon enough

Because judgment day's not coming
Soon enough

--- Nemesis

Procrastinating, pretending to worry
Solving problems by pushing them aside
Wasting time like we've all the time in the world

Deliberation instead of solution, another term for blatant lies
Biding time like we've all the time in the world

--- Testament

And the one that really gets me....
These faithful in lines that number thousands
bring perdition throughout the land
As though the angel of deah himself had been unleashed
to exact a punishment upon this world

Across this cursed place rage the fires
Where the innocent are burned on a thousand funeral pyres
In anguish parted from this world

Does the need for the belief in the Devil
Serve to palliate and forgive our sins
In the abandonment of reason and delivery unto Hell

--- Descent

I feel an urge to go light a torch and climb a tower with a gun. If I yell loud enough, how many people will hear me?

None.
