Politiken
Politiken (Danish pronunciation: [poliˈtiɡən]) is a leading Danish daily broadsheet newspaper, published by JP/Politikens Hus in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was founded in 1884 and played a role in the formation of the Danish Social Liberal Party. Since 1970 it has been independent of the party but maintains a liberal and centre-left stance. It now runs an online newspaper, politiken.dk. The paper's design won several international awards, and a number of its journalists won the Cavling Prize.
History and profile
Dagbladet Politiken was founded on 1 October 1884 in Copenhagen by Viggo Hørup, Edvard Brandes and Hermann Bing. Hørup and Brandes formed the newspaper after being fired as editors from the Morgenbladet over political differences. Hørup led the paper as editor-in-chief for fifteen years from its start in 1884.
In 1904, the tabloid Ekstra Bladet was founded as a supplement to Politiken and was later spun off as an independent newspaper on 1 January 1905. The paper established its present location in central Copenhagen at The City Hall Square in 1912.

Bloody Gain
by: KnuckledustLooking for a reason
A reason to stop grieving
Live such a fucked up game
Only the bloody can gain
Why bad minds live a long time
Make the innocent twisted and turn inside
Being pushed till broken not awoken
Can’t sleep cos in sweat I arise soaking
Life over war, strife and death
Strive forever till I breathe out my last breath
Just look where we are
Injustice reigns and we all suffer the pain
Have to find strength and start to regain
More faith in each other, more faith in true friends
How can we not see
When it’s right there in front of our face
When the truths around us so blatantly
Will there ever be a safe place to raise our seed
What will it take, another tragedy
Stealing innocence, sell life cheap
Sowing seeds of hate so deep
Neglect, ignorance is all we will reap
The abuse must stop
How can we live to make others suffer
Only serves to make the road rougher
Seeds will grow and learn to know
What life teaches is down to how we sow
I see the youth with turmoil in their hearts
How many dead, how many left broken
Up against it from the very start
Smothered by hate
We’re all left choking
Life is no commodity
We are burning
I see the people with tears in their eyes
They know inside that the future is uncertain
Forced to pass down a legacy of lies
