Napalm Death - Hiding Behind lyrics

rate me

(Lyrics Greenway : Music Harris, Mick)

Search for purity leads to insecurity

Individuality an incapability

Trapped within outside theories

Ideals adopted, agreeable on basis

Yet to question aspects a cardinal sin

Should self expression mean social loss of face

Labelled unaware because you beg to differ

Hiding behind a shroud of belief

Staunchly involved, highly confused

Confidence in your firmly lodged thoughts

Yet take a back seat while others speak for you

Should every single thinking moment

be saturated with political stance

Striving for perfection

Fear of group rejection

Better to be at mental ease

Than harbouring thoughts not mutually agreed

The spoken mind and reasons why
