Lyrics
We take ourselves too seriously. We sneak as may
We have a tendency to view ourselves with excessive seriousness.
Politics as we can. But, who will be the last to
We engage in political activities discreetly.
Realize that sometimes selling out is waking up? So,
Realizing that sometimes compromising one's principles is a form of awakening.
Here we are, two different walks of life crossed once
We, with different life paths, intersected in the past.
Before. And, it still takes a thousand miles to
Despite our similarities, significant effort is required for peaceful coexistence.
Co-exist. We are the same, just trying to exist. If
We share common ground as individuals striving to survive.
Rewritten pamphlets is the best clarity can provide,
If clarity is best achieved through revised propaganda, then a drink is desperately needed.
Then you need one (a drink) worse than me. Being
Being delusional is acceptable, but crossing personal boundaries is not.
Delusional, well, that's a whole new bag and it's
Delusional behavior is acknowledged, and it coexists with others until it becomes intrusive.
Fine. It's fine with everyone until you touch them.
Actions are tolerated until they directly impact others negatively.
(nothing is said no matter how angry or impassioned it
No matter how intense the expression, silence prevails.
May seem) and when they finally had enough, they
When tolerance reaches its limit, individuals withdraw.
Leave. They leave in fear. Your legacy will forever be
Leaving in fear becomes the legacy for those who overstep boundaries.
Self-righteous and violence against your own. Against
The enduring legacy is one of self-righteousness and violence against one's own community.
Your own. They can candy-coat their hardline roots all
Attempts to disguise uncompromising beliefs can't change the truth.
They want, but, I've seen the tapes. Don't ever let
Refusing to let misguided individuals define one's identity.
Those clowns define you. We take ourselves too
A repetition emphasizing the tendency to take oneself too seriously.
Seriously. We never leave our politics at home and
Politics is not left behind; it accompanies us in every aspect of life.
Just live. There will always be some struggle. Well,
Encouragement to live despite inevitable struggles.
Sometimes selling out is waking up.
Acknowledging that compromising one's principles can be a form of awakening.
