Not sure how to start this discussion, so let's start with a song I listened to:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Borders are the gallows
Of our collective national egos
Subjective, lines in sand
In the water, separating everything
Fear is the cause of separation
Backed with illicit conversations
Procured by constant condemnations
National blood-painted persuasions
Here's my song for the free
No, it's not about praise and publicity
Corprotocracy, what a hypocrisy
Aristocracy versus democracy
Fear is the cause of separation
Backed with illicit conversations
Procured by constant condemnations
National blood-painted persuasions
The king is dead and now
We're dancing in the streets
As the waters rise
We're merely covering our feet
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And before you tell me that songs normally don't point problems, every single song from Serj Tankian do have a hidden message.
What do you think about borders?
Is fear really the cause of separation?
Discuss.
