franz nicolay - it's alright, ma (i'm only bleeding) lyrics

Loading...

darkness at the break of noon
shadows even the silver spoon
the handmade blade, the child’s balloon
eclipses both the sun and moon
to understand you know too soon there is no sense in trying

pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
suicide remarks are torn
from the fool’s gold mouthpiece, the hollow h-rn
plays wasted words, proves to warn
that he not busy being born is busy dying

temptation’s page flies out the door
you follow, find yourself at war
watch waterfalls of pity roar
you feel to moan but unlike before
you discover that you’d just be one more person crying

so don’t fear if you hear
a foreign sound to your ear
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
i’m only sighing

as some warn victory, some downfall
private reasons great or small
can be seen in the eyes of those that call
to make all that should be k!lled to crawl
while others say don’t hate nothing at all, except hatred

disillusioned words like bullets bark
as human gods aim for their mark
made everything from toy guns that spark
to flesh-colored christs that glow in the dark
it’s easy to see without looking too far that not much is really sacred

while preachers preach of evil fates
teachers teach that knowledge waits
can lead to hundred dollar plates
goodness hides behind its gates
but even the president of the united states sometimes must have to stand naked

though the rules of the road have been lodged
it’s just people’s games you got to dodge
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
i can make it

advertising signs that con
you into thinking you’re the one
that can do what’s never been done
that can win what’s never been won
meantime, life outside goes on all around you

you lose yourself, you reappear
you suddenly find you got nothing to fear
alone you stand with n0body near
when a trembling distant voice unclear
startles your sleeping ears to hear that somebody thinks they really found you

a question in your nerves is lit
yet you know there is no answer fit
to satisfy, insure you not to quit
to keep it in your mind and not forget
that it is not he or she or them or it that you belong to

though the masters make the rules
for the wise men and the fools
i got nothing
nothing
nothing
nothing
to live up to

for them that must obey authority
that they do not respect in any degree
who despise their jobs, their destinies
speak jealously of them that are free
do what they do just to be nothing more than something they invest in

while some on principles baptized
to strict party platform ties
social clubs in drag disguise
outsiders they can freely criticize
tell nothing except who to idolize and then say god bless him

while one who sings with his tongue on fire
gargles in the rat race choir
bent out of shape from society’s pliers
cares not to come up any higher
but rather get you down in the hole that he’s in

but i mean no harm nor put fault
on anyone that lives in a vault
but it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
if i can’t please him

it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
if i can’t please him

old lady judges watch people in pairs
limited in s-x, they dare
to push fake morals, insult and stare
while money doesn’t talk, it swears
obscenity, who really cares, propaganda, all is phony

while them that defend what they cannot see
with a k!ller’s pride, security
it blows the minds most bitterly
for them that think death’s honesty
won’t fall upon them naturally, life sometimes must get lonely

my eyes collide head-on with stuffed
graveyards, false goals, i scuff
at pettiness which plays so rough
walk upside-down inside handcuffs
kick my legs to crash it off
say, “okay, i have had enough, what else can you show me?”

if my thought-dreams could be seen
oh, they’d put my head in a guillotine
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s life, and life only

it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s alright
it’s life, and life only
