about

And the only one that can see.... is me.

lyrics

I would give you my heart if I had one

Ripped from my chest
With only a dull throbbing pain, it’s a test
Hidden away at the back of my awareness
Just beyond the reach of any investigation worth it’s salt
Not one that just walks the walk, talks the talk
Or ticks any God-damned check-boxes.

I’m feeling angry and twisted
Disillusioned and clench-fisted
Because I’m drowning in the mire
With the population in its entirety
And the only one that can see
That the water is rising is me

I would tell you the truth if I knew it

Liars, telling lies to disguise
The lies that fed a nation
Indoctrination
Wrap me in a flag, tell me to overlook
The body bags of truth
The last bastion of humanity
Make my escape from the insanity
Clung on to the very last nail
In the coffin of the Western fairy tail

Because I’m tired and jaded
Confused and out-negotiated
Because I’m burning in the fire
With the population in its entirety
And the only one that can see
The shadows cast by the flames is me

I would stop the world if I could get off

If I could make it stop
That would be a start
If I had some balls I could lead a charge
But I choose to live on my knees
Caught between the hell of awareness
And the heaven that ignorance brings
I try to close my eyes, but they’re stuck fast
All my chances to blink have long since past.

I’ve been struck down and restricted
It turned out as I predicted
I’ve been conquered and divided
With the population in its entirety
But the only one that can see
The shackles and the fences and the holes in our defences is me

I’m feeling angry and twisted
Disillusioned and clench-fisted
Because I’m drowning in the mire
With the population in its entirety
And the only one that can see
That the water is rising is me
