Some of us don't have it in us
To maintain that we were winners
When all you love is under attack
Will you run to the hills or stay and fight back
Some of us don't have it in us
To mouth the lie that we were winners
When all you love is under threat
Will you forgive, will you forget?
You and I in culling come
Truth and beauty struck me dumb
Sandalphon whispers in dreams
The hum of beauty drowns fascist screams
They claim we won, I know we lost
On every street you can see the cost
I look into the darkening sun
Shocked to my core by what we've done
Some of us don't have it in us
To mouth the lie we were the winners
When all we love is under attack
Will you run to the hills or stay and fight back?
Some of us don't have it in us
To pretend we were all winners
When all you love is under threat
Will you forgive, will you forget?
And tolerance implies that we have transgressed
And yet we claim, we claim we've progressed
Tolerance implies some past transgression
React to the suggestion with maximum aggression
Rise
Incite
