Their Hypocrisy Makes God Take His Own Name In Vain
Defying Hypocrisy: Battling Ignorance with The Zheroes
Lyrics
Get your hands off my body and my body off your mind
Expressing a desire for personal autonomy and to be free from others' influence.
They want me dead
Facing threats or hostility from others.
But I'll be damned cuz they just won't let me die
Determined to survive despite the opposition or threats.
It's not their plan
Contrasting personal plans with those of others, highlighting a divergence.
But when did theirs ever line up with mine
Critical of others' plans, suggesting a lack of alignment with personal goals.
I never asked to be in anyone's way
Expressing a lack of intention to interfere with others.
But they insert themselves inside of me
Feeling invaded or encroached upon by others.
Oops
Acknowledging a potentially controversial or daring statement.
Is that too risque
Questioning if the statement is too bold or provocative.
Let's ask someone who knows what to say
Suggesting consulting someone knowledgeable for guidance.
Doctor, doctor
Seeking guidance or insight from a medical professional.
What's your diagnosis
Asking for a diagnosis, implying a metaphorical illness.
It's a terminal case of ignorance
Describing a pervasive and severe lack of understanding or knowledge.
Making the cancer their new best friend
Portraying ignorance as a destructive force, likening it to cancer.
We're all dying to see how this one ends
Anticipating the outcome of ignorance, suggesting a negative consequence.
Fire and brimstone
Using imagery of fire and brimstone to depict a fearful approach to salvation.
Fear is your only path to salvation
Suggesting fear as the only path to salvation, questioning its validity.
Or at least that's what I've been told
Expressing skepticism or doubt about received wisdom.
Maybe something's been lost in translation
Questioning potential distortions or misinterpretations in communication.
Twisting dead man's words to get their way
Accusing others of manipulating words for their own benefit.
Well I have something to say
Asserting the right to speak out against manipulative actions.
Doctor, doctor
Reiterating the request for a medical diagnosis.
What's your diagnosis
Continuing the metaphor of ignorance as a terminal condition.
It's a terminal case of ignorance
Highlighting the severity and permanence of ignorance.
Making the cancer their new best friend
Repeating the cancer metaphor, emphasizing its close association with ignorance.
We're all dying to see how this one ends
Reiterating the anticipation of negative consequences due to ignorance.
Doctor, doctor
Restating the inquiry into a medical diagnosis.
What's your diagnosis
Continuing to emphasize the gravity of ignorance as a terminal condition.
It's a terminal case of ignorance
Repeating the diagnosis request, underscoring its importance.
Making the cancer their new best friend
Reiterating the connection between ignorance and a harmful relationship with it.
We're all dying to see how this one ends
Re-emphasizing the anticipation of negative outcomes resulting from ignorance.
If home is where the heart is then my mind must be in hell
Exploring a metaphorical state of mental distress or turmoil.
The conscience is in purgatory dying to save itself
Portraying a moral struggle, with the conscience in a state of internal conflict.
