(Intro) [Instrumental: Mechanical stomp-clap drum pattern starts, like marching boots. A deep, distorted synth bass joins. Guitars slam in with a simple, brutal riff.] [Vocal: Deep, spoken, measured] Left… Right… Pure… Unclean… Friend… Enemy… (Verse 1) [Vocal: Deep, strict, almost spoken-sung] A crack runs through the table, through the bed and through the street, Your brother is a traitor now, the neighbor obsolete. You draw the line with papers, passes, colored codes, A silent civil war inside your friendly roads. Status over substance, label over soul, The heart turns into ice, division is the goal. They’ve injected poison, not just in the vein, But into how you think, how you love, how you remain. (Pre-Chorus) [Vocal: Slightly more melodic, intensity rising] Divide and rule, the oldest game, To set the crowd itself aflame. As long as we tear out our eyes, Their throne of lies forever lies. (Chorus) [Vocal: Powerful, shouted, with gang shouts on key words] This is the GREAT DIVIDE, it cuts through land and bone! The GREAT DIVIDE, leaves no one quite alone! Clean against unclean, left against right, In hatred, every face looks just alike! The GREAT DIVIDE splits flesh from soul apart, We dig our own grave with every hardened heart! (Verse 2) [Vocal: Deep, strict] You say you’re “safe,” but that’s not enough, You want a mark, a brand, a sacred cuff. You want the outcasts locked outside the gate, You call it “care,” but it’s just dressed-up hate. The neighbor peeks, the friend reports, You trade your trust for cheap retorts. They laugh above while we bleed below, They know exactly which seeds to sow. (Pre-Chorus) [Vocal: Rising again] Divide and rule, same script, new names, We fight ourselves inside their games. As long as we rip hearts in two, They never have to fear what’s true. (Chorus) [Vocal: Shouted, massive] This is the GREAT DIVIDE, it cuts through land and bone! The GREAT DIVIDE, leaves no one quite alone! Clean against unclean, left against right, In hatred, every face looks just alike! The GREAT DIVIDE splits flesh from soul apart, We dig our own grave with every hardened heart! (Bridge) [Instrumental: Guitars and bass drop; only marching snare, low drones, industrial noises. Vocals whispered, then exploding.] [Vocal: Whispering, menacing] Don’t look above. Don’t question why. Just hate your neighbor. Just watch him die. Tear him to pieces. Tear her apart. [Vocal: Sudden scream] OBEY THE DIVIDE! (Guitar / Synth Break) [Instrumental: Riff returns even heavier, layered with orchestral stabs and industrial synth blasts, short but intense.] (Chorus – Final) [Vocal: Maximum power, layered shouts and chorus] This is the GREAT DIVIDE, it cuts through land and bone! The GREAT DIVIDE, leaves no one quite alone! Clean against unclean, left against right, In hatred, every face looks just alike! THE GREAT DIVIDE! THE GREAT DIVIDE! (Outro) [Instrumental: Riff repeats four times, then stops dead on a last staccato hit.] [Vocal: Deep, single word, echoing] Separated.
