about

from the forthcoming album THE RECALCITRANT REALITY

I highly recommend this film as a companion piece to the song, as the lyrics started to come together after watching it and were further refined over the course of watching western governments support and downplay the horrors unfolding in Palestine over the last 3 months.

END THE GENOCIDE, FREE PALESTINE

lyrics

justify my suffering
i held my breath like it was my last
and savored the contradiction
of being in this state

while you justify the suffering
of our cities laid to ruin
joyfully manufacturing consent
to undertake the slaughter
of us all

deify the powerful
with weaponized indifference
a god who sweeps the unclean
from the pages of his book

as if the truth
were not so absolute

justify my suffering
i wept in the dirt as the rubble
fell around me
like a sinner
condemned for
daring to exist

rationalize this hatred
with the means to render
everything destruction
and build your houses
on our graves

no no no no
i won’t deify the powerful
i condemn your god
who sweeps the powerless
from the pages of his book

as if the truth
were not so absolute

a blanket of atrocity
to tuck the babies in at night
lullabies of hypocrisy
to sing them all to sleep

and i know you don’t care
i know you don’t care

and so you lie, to numb yourselves
