Invisible
H Lyrics

It's everywhere and nowhere
The problem is pervasive, but not always visible or obvious.

Lurks in some wicked hearts
Some people intentionally do harm or perpetuate the problem.

You'll know when it's ended
We will recognize and celebrate when the problem is finally resolved.

But not when it starts
It's hard to identify the beginning of the problem or when it first emerged.

So glamorous in the '70s
The problem may have once been celebrated or seen as fashionable.

Put your gun back in its holster
Don't jump to violence, remain calm and rational.

Reality is death and blood
The actual consequences of the problem are harsh and violent.

Not a Che Guevara poster
The idealistic images or beliefs associated with a cause or movement are not the same as reality.

It's pointing at you the invisible gun
You may be a victim of the problem without realizing it.

Do you put your hands up or turn and run
You may feel helpless or afraid when faced with the problem, but you have to decide how to respond.

Pointing at your children the invisible gun
The next generation bears the burden of the problem, even if they don't fully understand it yet.

Draw a line in the sand while you still can
Take action and make a stand before it's too late.

The cruel lead the weak
Those in power or with influence often oppress or take advantage of those who are vulnerable.

It's the bigotry of religion
The problem may be fueled or justified by misguided religious beliefs or intolerance.

No questions ever asked
The problem may be perpetuated by blind acceptance or unquestioning obedience.

And no quarter ever given
Those who perpetuate the problem show no mercy or compassion.

You know every trick
You may be familiar with the tactics used by those who perpetuate the problem.

You cover all the angles
You try to anticipate all possible scenarios or outcomes.

But you're easily offended
You may react strongly to things that challenge your beliefs or assumptions.

By a vulgar display of ankles
You may be offended by something trivial or superficial, while ignoring the deeper issues.

Living in a dark age
The problem makes us feel like we are living in a time of darkness and suffering.

Relishing the screams
Those who perpetuate the problem may enjoy or take pleasure in the pain or suffering of others.

Fear and panic spreading
The problem creates a sense of unease and anxiety that affects many people.

Cowardice in extreme
Those who perpetuate the problem are cowardly and unwilling to face the consequences of their actions.

Referring to your book
Using religious texts or beliefs to justify or perpetuate the problem.

Like a good pilgrim should
Blindly following and adhering to religious beliefs, even if they perpetuate the problem.

The assassin's mask is soaked
The violent actions taken by some to perpetuate the problem have real and bloody consequences.

In martyrs blood
Innocent people may be hurt or killed in the process of perpetuating the problem.
