to the hopeless – bound (and gagged) 4 life lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you stand side by side in perfect lines
hold hands and stare at them in silence
superstition and tradition: overturn those bowls in heaven
they watch the judgment pour from your eyes
do you really think that keeping quiet is the key to changing lives?

[verse 2]
silence has never changed a thing
but you’ll keep trying anyway
to get the sense that you’ve fulfilled responsibility
you stick close to the crowd
bound to a movement that isn’t moving
but bite your tongue, ’cause disagreement is dishonoring

[verse 3]
“murders and blasphemers!”
you pray, “may god have mercy on you!”
but you show no mercy for them
and you’re the answer to your own prayer

[verse 4]
life isn’t a word written with a pen
it’s the essence of truth spoken
it paces back and forth
on the tip of your tongue waiting for an exit

[chorus]
it’s sealed in by a red tape distraction
designed to block the words of life
you gamble their lives away on a dream
and you’re losing every time
uncover your mute mouths
and say something worth something
and try to show your value for their lives
help to change hearts and minds

[outro]
silence has never changed a thing
but you’ll keep trying anyway…
