lyrics

You've managed to paint with such broad strokes.
Are your peers impressed?
I'm sure your folks won't care to address
The lines you've drawn so straight and narrow.
Creating cause for me to interject.

Excuse my interruptions,
But I care not to explain.
To waste these words or my breath
I'd much prefer to stay sane.

Of course my language is profane.
Inexcusable to some but necessary to convey
The patterns recognized by holy eyes
Tightly shut for the better part of their whole lives.
Shed the weight of blame they'll never own.

I'd believe your revelations,
Your appearance sure has changed.
But quite frankly I'm just so sick
Of this one-sided exchange.

Pent up frustrations, as day approaches night.
Televised transmissions, speaking static coated lies
Color me persuaded, or a darker shade of jaded
Past the point of indication, maybe you, maybe me
Maybe this is alright.
