Blood Offering Distraction

from Suicide By Citizenship by WALKING BOMBS & GRIDFAILURE

/

lyrics

Liberty but at the expense of the marginalized
Your so called patriotic game is a shallow attempt
to erase the pain of tears they cried and lost lives
Your patriotism is a yoke not some divine right like you claim
Survival of the fittest but you're so ugly and rationalize
so much pain

And I stumbled on the scene and ran like seven seas pushing
through the eye of the needle to grasp the riches they'd been promising me
Yeah, get me to the good parts so we can see heaven before we die
The fine art of pulling yourself up by the bootstraps for a tiresome lie

The announcer is raving but I still don't care
cuz I can't forget bread and circuses get us nowhere
The ones he describes running by chasing fleeting fame but I
don't think distraction really helps our self - esteem
