Substance Abuse Lyrics by Mesa Verde

Amor Fati

0

You always sound good when the words coming from you
Are recited so clear that you'd think they were new
Rock your single portrait
For all it’s worth, I've rocked mine too
This is substance abuse
This is substance abuse
This is substance abuse
Deny it, derive it
This is substance abuse
This is substance abuse
This is substance abuse
Deny it, derive it
Contrived words need explanations
Forget about me, what does that say about you?
Confined to expectations
Far be it from me to teach you to dance
(You wanted to hear
But you're not listening
So you put up the act and hold us to task)
Because the things we think don’t matter to you
But when all is said and done
You're just an army of one
(So shout your slogans) And we'll shout them with you
(And sing your protest) And we'll play along
(So shout your slogans) And we'll shout them with you
(And sing your protest) And we'll play along
Don't need to explain, just do it
We've seen just about enough
Don’t need to explain, just do it
We’ve seen just about enough
You hear only what you want to hear
You see only what you want to see
How many words spoken
Have led to actions?
This is substance abuse, silence
The noise hear is deafening
This is substance abuse
This is substance abuse passed as the truth
Broken records
Need fixing
We're in this together
We’re in this together
