🎵 Enemies of the People 🎵
(Verse 1 — whisper-like, layered)
Cold streets, fractured mirrors in the snow
Two lives, blurred in flashes, moments we all know
Agents come with badges, but shadows follow close
Renée, Alex — names rise like ghosts
(Pre-Chorus — unsettling repetition)
And you say it’s explained
You say they were threats
You say march away
But the film won’t forget
You say “law,” “protocol,” “fear,”
But we see what was here
(Chorus — drifting, echo)
Enemies of the people
Enemies in plain sight
Two shots in the winter
Echoes through the night
Enemies of the people
Truth’s burning through the lie
We fold into the cold light
But their names will not die
(Verse 2 — dissonant)
A nurse with a warm heart, just trying to help
A mother in her car, caught in a clash you’ve felt
And the streets fill with whispers, rising into cries
Questions never answered, under vacant skies
(Bridge — layered vocals, soft but intense)
We held our breath…
We held our ground…
We watched them fall…
Now we hear the sound…
Of footsteps on cracked ice
Of questions that persist
Of faces and echoes
That the state can’t dismiss
(Chorus — more urgent)
Enemies of the people
Enemies in plain sight
Two shots in the winter
Echoes through the night
Enemies of the people
Truth’s burning through the lie
We fold into the cold light
But their names will not die
(Outro — fading whisper)
Two names rise in the hush…
Two lights in the gray…
Enemies of the people
But not of our way…
