In Deference

Lyrics for In Deference

Ethically aligned to the cause - Or so I thought A cause that decried the exploits Where masses are coerced Often, social justice is a cynical smokescreen Only at their bidding Close-circuit reach - don't overstep my boundaries Such boundaries that crumble under order Sincerely you serve your own ends - Do as I do I can't tell my left from my right - Corruption blurs Face the wrong direction And we risk containment Whilst they sanction murder Close-circuit reach quickly erases all travesties Such travesties waved away with feeble ease It's adjudged to be uncivil You should be at a lower reach Bound over Because open thinking is an act of complicity Leaders are leading by example 'Rights' and 'wrongs' on a sliding scale Sit atop the order of importance You too can reap the power harvest The 'deviant' young get in the way We become suitably distraught Whilst their judges take lives near and afar And reap the power harvest
