Inherent Conflict from Collective Brutality by Collective Brutality

This song was originally written back in the Hunter/Ian era, but was 100% different. It was written entirely by Sean, but as we moved on with time we felt both the music and lyrics had to have an overhaul. The final version here is very different than the original, but still similar in many ways, like structure and riff style. This is the only song on the record Sean wrote entirely by himself, but certainly kicks equally as much ass as any other track, and packs a whole bunch of brutality into a short 3 minutes.

Tuning: Drop D

Lyrics

What you perceive
Is never real
What hides behind
Is what you fear
What lurks beyond
Beyond what you hold
Contained within
A tortured soul

You can't help it, you can't stop it, you can't force it
You can't feel it, you can't touch it, you can't save it

Hear it cry

Once all is done
You return alive
The suffering
Better off to die
The stain of war
The great turmoil
Can never change
What's put in soil

You can't help it, you can't stop it, you can't force it
You can't feel it, you can't touch it, you can't save it

Hear it cry

The dead are dead
What's done is done
But in the end
Have you actually won?

Hear it cry

Hear it cry
