about

It’s about keeping quiet when others do wrong. Are we really any better than the wrong doers when we don’t speak up or take action?

lyrics

Talk amongst yourselves and get it straight cause the paper trail is lost.
You’re in the clear and I’m the bait, too ashamed to pay the cost
of the sick and of the dead. I guess I’m no worse than you,
by closing eyes and turning heads. But what the hell was I to do?
Split yourself in two then pick a side so the grey skies disappear.
The black and white’s been in disguise; it’s confirming all your fears.
Place the guilt right up your sleeve like a trick that stuck with me.
Then play your cards if you believe in your so called “honesty.”
I’ve been on a guilt trip so long. Lost in the silence and carried along.
You got me in the business. We’re through! Now I’m coming clean and telling the truth
to all I’ve hurt by lying down while you’ve been spreading your lies and destroying the town.
And I will stand up, repent. It’s time to expose you.
So long overdue that now I’m spent.
If you held the files on Watergate, would you ask me for a match
or call the press to set it straight? Have you learned to self-detach
and ignore the characters; good and evil by each ear?
It takes its toll on every nerve till you set your conscience clear.
And you’re never going to fight this feeling. You were buried when you let the ceiling fall again while sitting on the sidelines. You did nothing at all!
