Work Together

Let's work together,
let's get along.
Let's not remember
where it all went wrong.
Let's call a reset
to where we were.
Let's end the conflict
and not get hurt.
No one wants to hear the cursing;
no one wants to taste the salt;
no one wants to feel the impact;
no one wants to see the blood.
Let's sign this and move our lives on,
we don't need to dwell on fault.
Let's promise to never come back,
I don't need to build another bomb.
And when we're nice an peaceful,
you'll learn to see what's fair.
Don't need to label people,
don't need to clear the air.

Tell Me

This is wrong.
So tell me, 'cause you know that I know.
Tell me where we're going to be tomorrow.
Tell me what we're going to see
from the edge of the screen —
'cause you know that I know that you know...
Tell me what we're going to need tomorrow
'cause this is wrong.
You tell me what I want to hear
from the edge of the stage.
But I know that you know
we're afraid.
Tell me we're not going to bleed when all is done;
tell me we don't have to wait for a saviour;
tell me this was all for a cause, or our hearts will fade;
tell me that I am not afraid!
'Cause this is wrong, and we're here.

Not Who We Are

I'm gonna take you out,
I'm gonna make you pay;
you're gonna get rekt
by the end of —
This is not who are.
It's not out of line,
just a gift from the past.
I don't have time
to hold fast.
Is there any basis for this daily affirmation?
Do we thermoform in positive, or is it speculation?
(This is not who we are.)
This passion swells, vents to relief
in actions that may feel so sweet
but when the outcome zero-sums,
we'll have to question what you've done.

We will never ever forgive them.
You must never ever forgive them.
They knew, and they're not sorry.
It's not new; no guilt, no worry.
They always knew inside.
Perhaps it's hard to verbalise?
They don't mean to undo
the consequent that's done.
Choose a team, a nice view;
so certain that they've won.

Autodidactic Deception

If behind every Nobel is a great teacher
what can we surmise from the smooth hate-preacher?
Nobody taught me how to lie or despise, I believe,
but pedagogy goes a little further, we can see.
They say and we repeat that all are equal,
but all things being equal is a caveat.
And life would be a dull game if we had a common goal,
just riding on the banker's baccarat.
And I wouldn't say that I could lead a court room,
but at some point I'll call a beard a spade.
No, it's not a easy thing to sit in judgement,
but we're dealing with the details every day.
We fall to speculation — where does it come from?
Unfashionable to blame the original.
If everybody sweetens — you get to know them —
participant observation is impossible.
We see the pictures printed and condemn the general view
(but for individual circumstance of course we can excuse)
and we have to send a message, but omit to state for whom,
and recall the details wildly in the future to exhume —
And standing on a soapbox I forget how I got there,
feeling like an idiot to believe that a world would care;
vocabulary dressing up the dreams of a child,
prestidigitation to conceal an optimist in self-denial.

This track manipulates a small excerpt from an interview given by George W. Bush on March 23rd, 2003. The full quote, in response to a question about American POWs in Iraq, was:
"I expect them to be treated, the POWs I expect to be treated humanely. And -- just like we're treating the prisoners that we have captured humanely. If not, the people who mistreat the prisoners will be treated as war criminals."
