about

For everyone who died because a handful of people in power believed they were expendable.

lyrics

Smell the flowers while you can
Wojnarowicz once did say
For all the women and the fags
Murdered by the FDA
Feel no guilt in your desire
Feel no guilt in your desire
Enraged by what they did to you
Enraged by what they still do

KNOW THAT IT STILL HAPPENS NOW
AND KNOW YOUR HISTORY
THERE WILL ALWAYS BE EXPENDABLES
IN EVERY FUCKING COUNTRY

How to get away with murder
Stick your fingers in your ears
Claim to be a moral saviour
And hope the bodies disappear
Feel no guilt in your desire
Feel no guilt in your desire
Enraged by what they did to you
Enraged by what they still do

CHORUS

And in my dreams I crawl across freshly cropped lawns, past your dogs and your cars and your guardians and the things that leave you feeling comfortable and safe and I will crawl through the smallest cracks in the bricks of the walls to your building and I will climb your stairs and go to your bedroom where you lie sleeping and I will wake you and I will welcome you to this bad dream

Arghh!
In your head you can fuck without a rubber
In your head set congressmen on fire
Feel no guilt in your desire
Become 16 feet tall
Pissing on hypocrites below
Pissing on hypocrites below
Feel no guilt in your desire
Enraged by what they did to you
Enraged by what they still do

CHORUS x2

All I can feel is the pressure
Waiting to snap
