Letting You by Nine Inch Nails:
the sky is painted black
the smoke pours out the stack
one hand upon your heart
one hand behind your back
you train us how to act
you keep the fear intact
the imminent attack
everything is right on track
and we are letting you get away
we are letting you get away with it
upon our plates to feed
the dying left to bleed
how much we really need
your politics of greed
the cancer takes ahold
the wolf is in the fold
our destiny’s been sold
we do just what we’re told
and we are letting you get away
we are letting you get away with it
your armies filled with hate
believing your charade
begin to suffocate
for us it’s far too late
and we are letting you get away
we are letting you get away with it

NIN gives me goosebumps any time I listen to them now. I hope I will be able to see them live at Lollapalooza in Chicago (and I would recommend you come if you can). Rage against the machine + NIN will be the revolutionists spreading the message, its gonna be a blast.

I know that the lyics are true for the majority but it does not give any hope. Some might listen to that and feel hopeless against the system and we know there is hope in Jesus.
I am one who does not like to give just the horror of what is going on in the world but to let people know there is still time if only they put their trust in Jesus. Without hope (Jesus) a people die.
Yours in Christ
