The knowledge will die with me
I can't put it to words, I can't speak it out loud
The knowledge will die with me
The awareness of what happened in that blood-hot dust

But the poison will seep through the generations
Each new child learning the gospel of hate
With no idea what the root of the weed is
No idea of the sins that have caused this

The living truth pervades every facet of life
Pervades every facet of living and breathing and thought
But the gospel of hate is just as strong
And it wraps its tendrils around it all

But the youth of tomorrow won't realize they're being choked
They won't realize why they are being choked
An echo of the collective unconscious playing out on the television
While they destroy so much
