THE KNOW NOTHINGS lyrics : "Abolition"
Yet I fade in and out
Of perverse conversations
That can't be more than hypocrisy
Fractions of misery drought my veins
And I thirst with wishes of peace
But my conception's torn of ease
So much mocking me
I court waging war
My conception's free of relief
Regarding only distain
Truthful trade
Pushing the ignorance
I, the loathing being
Cornered, unblind
Voiceless defiler
Pleading crown
I, the sinking trier
My ration is purged in screams
I don't even know what I mean
What's the virtue of selling woes
When you're the only buyer?
Pedaling my own path
Each step I laid like a stoned
I never built for what was true
I build what helped ignore you
Every stranger who needed my hand
My corrosive grasp ridded that
There's no faking the situation
The disregard of man
We all watched the dam break
And told each other to "hold your breath"
No more can I turn the cheek
I'm wide eyed for you
This is abolition of my name
And recognition of yours
This abolition of a deaf ear
I listening for you
My ration is purged in screams
This is my open mouthed defeat
