lyrics

i spend more time than is acceptable or healthy trying to connect the dots between the strings that i press
with my fingers and the ideas that have successfully tied themselves inside my troubled head
like it shouldn't matter if you wear black and bandanas or if you go to work everyday in a suit and tie
as long as you are screaming at the top of your lungs
as long as you know we all eventually wither and die

lets pretend that we've got better things to do than just lay down and ignore the urge to resist
please don't go so quietly into that night because the loudest protest we'll ever sing is our own right to exist

and are we taking back our freedoms or are we standing around just holding our dicks
pissing off our soapboxes about who's the better activist it's distracting and we don't have time for it

i don't wanna hear another motherfucker in this scene
say that we don't need police
if the first words out yr mouth when one of our friends is assaulted is 'why didn't you call the authorities'

& i will absolutely snap if one more motherfucker says how we proudly don't need police
if the first words out yr mouth when one of our friends is assaulted is 'well why didn't you just call the authorities'
and are we taking back our freedom or are we being led by the hand like screaming kids down the path to mediocrity
please dont go so quietly into that because the loudest sound in your head will be what will happen if you quit

and are we taking back our freedoms or are we standing around just holding our dicks
pissing off our soapboxes about who's the better activist it's distracting and we don't have time for it
