Grievance

Lyrics for Grievance

Have a drink they're buying Bottom of bottle of denial Big guy, big eye watching me Have to wonder what it sees Progress laced with ramifications Freedom's big blur Break the innocent when they're proud Raise those sticks them bring them down If they fail to obey Ah, if they fail to obey, yeah, yeah For every tool they lend us A loss of independence I pledge my grievance to the flag 'Cause you don't give blood then take it back again Oh, we're all deserving something more Progress taste it, invest it all Champagne breakfast for everyone Break the innocent when they're proud Raise those stakes then bring 'em down If they fail to obey Oh, if they fail to obey I pledge my grievance to the flag 'Cause don't give blood then take it back again Oh, we're all deserving something more I want to breathe part of the scene I want to taste everyone I see I want to run when I'm up high I want to run to the sea I want to life to be I just want to be I will feel alive as long as I am free
