american standards - the pendulum, the podium lyrics

Loading...

hope be a widow
oblivion in her eyes
she’s been waiting for me to come home
but another day passes by

write it down

i threw my wish into the well
and now i pay for it by living in this h+ll
i search for something
but nothing has a hold of me
i’m left with nothing
but now something won’t let me leave

write it down

[and if the people said]
“i don’t care about god or religion
if you’re telling me this is the vision
then i’m burning it all to the ground”

write it down

walking hand in hand with complacency
you and me
we pray to the god of survival
tied to the machine
as thе pendulum swings
and they say
“power is tеmporary”
it’s always taken away
and they display what they k!ll
but they don’t answer for the blood
they don’t answer
so let’s make them answer

[speech excerpt from “on hope” by robert green ingersoll originally recorded in new york, december 31, 1897]
