lyrics

DARK AGES

As the multitude
goes marching by
will you take a stand?
its a case of do or die

will it be like before?
like those who threw it away
not the vaguest notion
not having a say

they let it burn down

Alexandria
shows few traces of
its former glory
that we are all heirs of

the palaces and temples
converted to castles
its churches rose and fell
to mosques and minarets

they let it burn down

"why should we care?"
the mob will surely cry
dissolving efforts toward enlightenment
we once tried

the mob effectively
brought an Age of Darkness
is this what you want?
well, you can't take it away from me

you can't burn it down

DEMO #1
by The Stance

supported by 7 fans who also own “Dark Ages”

So Im not sure how this band got past me,but Im glad I finally took a peak at how they sound. Great Oi/ Punk from another top notch Boston band. Harsh and angry ( in all the besy ways) this band knocks it outta the park. The price for this offering and the " Tape 2" make picking up The Stance's stuff a no-brainer. File this im Badass Boston Oi to wreck shit by!" East Bay Working Class
