about

-Denial-

No - This can not be
Why - Do you not think?
How - Can you not see?
Vile - Surely you aren’t scum

No, what, this isn’t happening
Is this really normal now?
Maybe, you just, don’t understand
Choosing hate or manipulated

-Anger-

It’s not that you’re evil but
You can’t all be misunderstanding
Someone is leading you
To a trough full of shit

We’ve got to do something,
Tell everyone.
My blood is boiling.
I can’t even think.

Are we watching the same news?
Are we living on the same planet?
Fight them, ban them, hate them all.

-Bargaining-

I’ll stop protesting, when you stop being shit.
I won’t shout you down, if you take a fucking fact-check.

We won’t drown your voices, until we know your reasons.
We won’t block the streets, until you need to see us.
I won’t call you a nazi, until you incite hatred.
I won’t call you stupid, unless you fucking prove it.

I’m not averse to being corrected
Leave dogma and denial for the Sunday service
Give me something credible, I’ll shout it from the rooftops
Just don’t think you’re in-fucking-fallible.

-Depression-

What can I do in the face of unstoppable ignorance?
Why should I fight the rising tide of bullshit?
But if I don’t, and none react
The hate and pain will overwhelm us.

-Acceptance-

It doesn’t get better if you run from it
It doesn’t get easier if you ignore it
In their lives, not everyone can fight back
Lend your voice to those who need it

Don’t run from it, don't ignore it
Lend your voice to those in need.
