The Seventh Cavalry - Misery Index
So steadfast in reinforcing the myth
Of a sovereignty so fictitious
They're in your home
Now spreading disease
Our nation slogging down
On wounded knees
Until they're dead
Battalions built on a mountain of lies
Taking heads eloquent deception
Superseded and set aside
We watch the hills as
They enter and then divide
We saw it
We bought it
From severed to delivered
The invasion has been
Predevised to pacify
And redefine
I can't hear them
And I won't listen
To lie frozen and slowly
Fade into the black
The seventh cavalry has arrived
To divide our reservations
Dear ears to decide
To open fire no compromise
Bleak Dakota in a crimson snow
A Ghost dancer in a grave unknown
Off in the wind their shots resound
As we become
One with the ground
I can't hear them
And I won't listen
To lie frozen and slowly
Fade into the black
