lyrics

Don't provoke just look away
Leave injustice for the scales to weigh
That's how the story went
Fending off the argument
Until the case was made
If you have a good grasp of history
I share your fear

Riding high above the law
You fail to see what they have got in store
A vision of the past
Uncertain futures built to last
So let's leave this place and go outside
Scurry back into the womb to hide

Life washed up on the shore
We cannot reconnect the chord
It's hard to comprehend
But if you have the good grace to at least pretend
I share your fear

Don't masturbate or you'll go blind
Conceal the fate of all mankind

Don't provoke just look away
Leave injustice for the scales to weigh
That's how the story went
Feeding off the arguments

Well they're hoisting up the butchers rag
Representing all we never had
It's flying at half-mast
For those who sacrificed the facts
Lest we forget
Again and again and again
I share your fear

Don't masturbate or you'll go blind
Consume the hate of all mankind
