lyrics

You spoke of reducing the distance
between us and the poor
Liberation to captives
and so much more
Whatever it takes
We felt this deeply

But you put miles between us
With lived privilege left unchecked
Seems it came with a price
A blurred sense of boundaries
and coerced relations
A thirst for injustice quenched

You've been trashed by the system
verses the other way around
Weapons against the punks
against the poor
To dull our senses

The hole in your critique is where
your drink pours through

No longer a threat to those who enslave you
just to the ones that love you
