American Culture eXperiments - Talk lyrics
rate meEverywhere around us someone's got something to say Isolated outbursts but nothing goes away Everyday you hear the words of destruction and fear Always spreading our opinions Without the willingness to hear All this noise about nothing, drowning the meaning of it all Outside this oral defecation the world is an empty stall "Injustice over here! Hatred over there!" Talk talk talk but the sin is everywhere! Words words words...All we have are these? Can we feed them to the poor or with them heal disease? Talk talk talk...Is that all we will do? Sacrifice ourselves we must go die for what is true Take in information through the lenses you create Never do a thing about the things you say you hate Surround yourself with people who say what you want to hear What keeps you from action is it selfishness or fear? Talk about injustice do we really want it gone It takes more than a zine or writing lyrics to a song Scapegoat the middleclass if it covers up your guilt No conviction penetrates the fortress you have built Every night we go to sleep, Homeless sleeping in the street, Molested children in their homes, Millionaires in beds alone. It will take more than our disembodied ideas; More than hard music and counter cultural fashion. A disjointed community stands no chance Against multinational and inner super powers.
