Music And Politics |
I would tel you that sometimes it’s easier to desire |
And pursue the attention and admiration of 100 strangers |
Than it is to accept the love and loyalty |
Of those closest to me |
And I would tell you that sometimes |
I prefer to look at myself |
Through someone elses eyes |
Eyes that aren’t clouded with the tears of knowing |
What an asshole I can be, as yours are |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
I might be able to listen in silence to your concerns |
Rather than hearing everything as an accusation |
Or an indictment against me |
I would tell you that sometimes |
I use sex to avoid communication |
It’s the best escape when we’re down on our luck |
But I can express more emotions than laughter, anger |
And let’s fuck |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
I would tell you that I pooped in my own dog dish |
And sometimes I would rather face not eating |
Than face licking it clean |
And admitting when I’m selfish |
And I’d tell you that I’m suffering |
From the worst type of loneliness |
The loneliness of being misunderstood |
Or more poignantly |
The loneliness of being afraid |
To allow myself to be understood |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
I would tell you that the personal revolution |
Is far more difficult |
And is the first step in any revolution |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
If ever I would stop thinking about music and politics |
I would tell you that music is the expression of emotion |
And that politics is merely the decoy of perception |
