| I’ve tried to find reconciliation behind the walls of those whose hatred burns
|
| For I find it easier to reach someone who still feels
|
| Than to make amends with passionless apathy
|
| Where all lines are the same a portrait cannot be made
|
| I need to burn inside. |
| I need to know that you are alive
|
| I need to know that feelings of discontent are stronger
|
| Than indifference for those too weak to stand
|
| Like a colorless sky over a sea of nothingness
|
| Hatred faces its enemies while apathy strikes furtively
|
| I need to burn inside. |
| I need to know that you are alive
|
| I need to know that feelings of discontent are stronger
|
| Than indifference for those too weak to stand
|
| I need to know that feelings of discontent are stronger
|
| Than indifference for those too weak to stand…
|
| Until our anger burns against injustice, we will create
|
| The faceless by dismissing those forced to concede
|
| Many of us have turned off the light outside, erasing what exists beyond our
|
| front door
|
| And for you I find it harder to reach common ground than my most glaring
|
| opposition
|
| But what about those who’ve lost the luxury of choice?
|
| …striving for identity, buried by our lack of interest, souls marked as mere
|
| history
|
| How much grievance will it take to awaken us?
|
| I need to know that feelings of discontent are stronger
|
| Than indifference for those too weak to stand
|
| I need to know that feelings of discontent are stronger
|
| Than indifference for those too weak to stand…
|
| How much grievance will it take to awaken us from the comfort of our homes?
|
| …the comfort of our oversized graves
|
| I’ve tried to find reconciliation… I’ve tried to find reconciliation… |
