Lyrics:
We spoke our minds too clearly. we assumed fundamental
rights were inherent not as pawns but humans. I do not
require a gauge for freedoms of speech cause I never
asked to be a citizen. I never have and I never will
pledge allegiance.
Waking up each morning with confusion in my eyes.
The wind is biting through to wave "hello". Seeing
my reflection, an exterior of lies. I hope this
shaking feeling doesn't show. As if I tried to tell
you there was little left to say. Stilted conversations
coloured blue You were sitting down and you got up to
walk away. I tried to stay but I was right behind you.
Tension in the stair, I cannot bear so close to helpless
as this song I sing. Inside me ring. Final words are
boring never touch I know you whispered something
in my ear. I couldn't hear you.
Girls with the greenest eyes. First time you have kissed.
Our quiet, softest sighs. A song for all of those who
shot and missed.
Welcomed to this world, imputed identity. Born, tagged,
tattooed, pacified. Generously bestowed my rights
and privileges replete. Arbitrary values ascribed.
There's nothing I can tell you. There's nothing I can say.
Stunted conversation, censored thought. I'm completely free,
at liberty, guaranteed. Unless, of course, you decide I'm not.
But I'll not be resigned to fall in line behind you. Tension
in the air I cannot bear so what the fuck am I accomplishing?
Absolutely nothing. All these words are boring. It's time for
action. But you've taught me to be a pawn.
Hey, it won't last for long.
Those who see through the lies are quickly gagged and bound.
Their ambitions realized. Tear the whole fucking thing down!
I was right behind you
I was right behind you
I was right behind you
Enjoy!
