Anecdote Lyrics

Is there a limit to the weight of human suffering?

Lifting the burden of undue responsibility

Forcing a choice that puts them directly in harm's way

We see it in your eyes (I only care about me)

No way to change your mind (I only care about me)

Political will fades (I only care about me)

These empty tired tirades (I only care about me)

Just sit tight, we're coming for you

Critical thinking and compassion are not enemies

Don't let your first reaction guide healthcare delivery

Your track record is sheepish / risk taking here is needed

Why can't you commiserate with anything you can't relate to

Don't let us disrupt what you do // just sit tight, we're coming for you

What are the choices that we have in facing current facts

Get into politics or scream on front lines pushing back

No matter where you land, you'll always feel the lack of impact

A tangled mass of wires sitting in dens of liars

Shortfalls unequivocal / just stand up straight and do it all

You'll see it in my eyes (I'll make you care about me)

If this won't change your mind (I'll make you care about me)

Archaic views will die (I'll make you care about me)

Won't let this chance slip by (I'll make you care about me)

We'll get you one way or another // don't let us disrupt your othering

Just sit tight, we're coming for you
