Lets talk about DISPOSABLE HEROES OF HYPOCRISY then.
That's music right? ok so I like these lyrics.
Life these days
can be so complex
we don't make the time
to stop and relfect
I know from first hand experience
one can go delerious
seriously it can be like that
But before I put my foot in my mouth
'cause that's what I'm about to start
talkin about
please let me confess before all the rest
that I'm afflicted
by this addicted like most in the US
It's tough to make a living when you're an artist
It's even tougher when you're socially conscious
Careerism, opportunism
can turn the politics into cartoonism
Let's not patronize or criticize
Let's open the door and look inside
Pull the file on the state of denial
Hypocrisy is the Greatest Luxury
Raise the Double Standard
The bass, the treble
Don't make a rebel
Havin' your life together does
AMERICA
has an image of a young one
fast livin' not give an expletive
no respect for his
or the lives of those around him
Suicidal, homicidal or at very least
extremely unbridled
How convenient for those
who would like to destroy him
The problem has never been our political logic
but the way we enact it
We can imagine a perfect society
but can't maintain a decent relationship
The failure found in the luxuries
not in the hardships
Hypocrisy is the Greatest Luxury
Raise the Double Standard
