Everywhere around us someone's got something to say
|
Isolated outbursts but nothing goes away
|
Everyday you hear the words of destruction and fear
|
Always spreading our opinions
|
Without the willingness to hear
|
|
All this noise about nothing, drowning the meaning of it all
|
Outside this oral defecation the world is an empty stall
|
"Injustice over here! Hatred over there!"
|
Talk talk talk but the sin is everywhere!
|
|
Words words words...All we have are these?
|
Can we feed them to the poor or with them heal disease?
|
Talk talk talk...Is that all we will do?
|
Sacrifice ourselves we must go die for what is true
|
|
Take in information through the lenses you create
|
Never do a thing about the things you say you hate
|
Surround yourself with people who say what you want to hear
|
What keeps you from action is it selfishness or fear?
|
Talk about injustice do we really want it gone
|
It takes more than a zine or writing lyrics to a song
|
Scapegoat the middleclass if it covers up your guilt
|
No conviction penetrates the fortress you have built
|
|
Every night we go to sleep, Homeless sleeping in the street,
|
Molested children in their homes, Millionaires in beds alone.
|
It will take more than our disembodied ideas;
|
More than hard music and counter cultural fashion.
|
A disjointed community stands no chance
|
Against multinational and inner super powers.
