lyrics

Don’t put/let us down, we’ve been everywhere/nowhere but down. Could you let us take water with/wives from you? Could you let us break bread with/ranks from you? Trade our sisters up. Give our gifts up. Take us up with you. When we bonded we were not ourselves. Don’t out us because we can’t keep the lines that keep apart. They were blurry and not fixed anyway. Why would you cast us out? They said, then we said: forever 1, 2, 3; ranked 1, 2, 3; static, stagnant, you seduced me; you are polluted, un-free; tried and tested on me. It’s not that easy. Could you try and understand? It’s not that easy to stop being one’s self all over again when you just found your real self all over again. We are dead again. We are out of the ranks again. We are forgotten in our kin’s eyes. They said, then we said: forever 1, 2, 3; ranked 1, 2, 1-2-3; you seduced me. They said, they said: you are polluted, un-free; you are tried and tested on me; you are dead still; you’re alone now.
