a simple state

you think of peace as such a simple state
but all that's complex does not end in dark
we find that evil hides within the gate

words uttered by a fool will always grate
and leave on every mind a smudgy mark
you think of peace as such a simple state

the honest man is first to turn irate
when burned by what is not a little spark
we find that evil hides within the gate

we can't control the purpose nor the rate
at which you feed the chum unto the shark
you think of peace as such a simple state

you were the champ but now you are the bait
and not a single dog would dare to bark
we find that evil hides within the gate

it is so easy just to blame dumb fate
and say that the old world is no safe park
you think of peace as such a simple state
we find that evil hides within the gate
