K.K. Crushin' Lyrics

Here we are

We're back again

I thought time might mend

But it seems to me that all good things must end

We sense dissent (We hunt its scent)

We rip

We rend

Till it's torn to shreds

Why can't we see for once what we've done?

We went to war and no one won

Is this your sick idea of fun?

Seeing just which ties can be undone

Please, just tell me why we're here

If all you do is point and jeer

Your cries of pity aren't sincere

That's clear

I can't tell if you can see this psychopathy

Seeping through the trite you're spewing

"They grew the stem"

"They breathe, we condemn"

"Oh, it's Us vs. Them"

And what really stings the most is that I know

That I'm the one who let this grow

It ferments and festers oh, so slow

But still, I let this hatred flow

And sure, we'll hurt. And sure, we'll die

But I really thought that we'd be fine

As long as we could just be kind, alike

But then again, it's not the end

Save the sour laments

'Cos maybe it's too late to make amends

But I'd rather try, and lose this fight

Than just stand aside

So, I'll go and put myself in the light

Find the time. Fight this quiet

I'm tired of standing idly by

I don't wanna pick a side

And maybe, I'm just naive

And this is how it's meant to be

Crushed beneath the enmity

Contempt without remedy

Choose a side

Prepare to fight

There's no end in sight

Why can't we just get along tonight?

Grab a seat, and pour a drink and come sing along with me

We'll help us see

We can't be crushed

We can be free
