Frustrations Lyrics

The frustrations of neutrality

Haunt me daily and oh, especially nightly

Your measured responses are misplaced

Oh, and your favourite line: it is what it is

Isn't it good enough to ask what's right?

Softly enough that no one could object?

I withdraw again in my shameful earnestness

Wiping my heart dripping on my sleeve

How long will you try to tell yourself that justice is an acquisition?

I would gladly trade my accolades if it would mean a revelation

Walls can be torn down by furious hands

If we're unafraid of blood and dirt, otherwise

We infinitely replicate, brick by brick

In this wasteland you call history

How long will you try to tell yourself that justice is an acquisition?

I would gladly trade my accolades if we could be a revelation

Let's pretend we're not what we've been through

Or hold ourselves too tightly to attack

Oh god the things I've turned myself into

Watch me turn back

Watch me turn back

When I tire of this fight, that could be the rest of our lives

Who would blame me if I fall?

When I tire of this fight, that's just when I decide to rise

How long will you try to tell yourself that justice is an acquisition?

I would gladly trade my accolades if we could be a revelation

Let's pretend we're not what we've been through

Or hold ourselves too tightly to attack

Oh god the things I've turned myself into

Watch me turn back

Watch me turn back
