At Any Cost Lyrics by Terrible Claw
A clandestine arrangement
Cloak and dagger affair

A clandestine arrangement
Cloak and dagger affair
A trait intrinsic
To our core design
The structure, decaying around us
The venire, corroded
A cast iron arrangement
Is burgeoning ahead
Ignored the warning signs
Knowledge goes unheeded
I, the full sum of naught
A face in a crowd
Caught in the crossfire
Of decades of conflict
The product of life’s work
And nothing much to show
Sneering, egoism, blind to the damage done
Attrition drove by insults
A campaign fuelled by hate
Petulant ascendant head of state
