Crimson Paradox Lyrics

Guns fire – black sun dire
Tank gunner – hold your fire
Protester yells in anger
A bloodless coup conspired

Hear them outcry for freedom
To dictator we won't succumb
King Naked – bloody "Red Terror"
Conceals the system error

Crimson paradox

He said we are the kingdom of this world

Aristocrats protected
Have-nots and poors discarded
The system contradiction
Starvation anger eruption

Modernization's pitfall
Triggers a collapse of the Great Wall
King Naked – true oppression
Inhumane mass aggression

Crimson paradox

Guns fire – black sun dire
Tank gunner – hold your fire
Protester yells in anger
A bloodless coup conspired

Hear them outcry for freedom
To dictator we won't succumb
King Naked – bloody "Red Terror"
Conceals the system error

Crimson paradox!
