Condemn Me

Lyrics about a racist protest-shooter who gets arrested and put under psych eval.

I was once a happy jerk with a very sheltered past

In the suburbs, where I lurked, now becoming memory fast

Was a distant figure I called hope and a world of alternative knowledge,

Asylum sail and death is stale, "yours is a noose made out of college!"

Well, I know what it takes to be free

An alt-right with a Nazi flag, up on your tv screen

If I had one wish, I'd wish that everyone could see

That peace and love, and harmony
Are not for me

THAT'S NOT FOR ME, THAT'S NOT FOR ME

A growing sense of agro dread and the past won't stay the past,

Restless wreckage I left to the dead, pollute my "poverty" class

Itching fingers pull the trigger, lingers to define the lines,

I'm fucked up but I know my rights and I have no boundaries in my mind

Well, I know what it takes to be free

An alt-right with a Nazi flag, up on your tv screen

If I had one wish, I'd wish that everyone could see

That peace and love, and harmony
Are not for me

THAT'S NOT FOR ME, THAT'S NOT FOR ME

I feel so free, loneliness binds me- water under the bridge-

A match to light and say goodnight, and look to the heavens for kicks

A teacher-preacher in the bleachers,

A shrink-wrapped vision designs my future

It's surgical presicion to cut the tension, when you've hit too close to home

And eventually, I'll shut up and become a hateful drone

Well, I know what it takes to be free

An alt-right with a nazi flag, up on your tv screen

If I had one wish, I'd wish that everyone could see

That peace and love, and harmony
Are not for me

THAT'S NOT FOR ME, THAT'S NOT FOR ME
