Oh
Cry

By my own volition, isolated and set free
The symptom of your violence and the dissident in me
Untrusting of the promise of a figurehead to lead
When they’ve broken all their promises and left us here to bleed
To bleed

Abandon us
You turned your backs on all of us
Abandoned us
All we had
Reduced to dust

Use your intuition
Awaken from your sleep
How many years controlled by fear?
The fallacies run deep

Contention, contention
Diverted, diverted
Democracy is deserted

Abandon us
You turned your backs on all of us
Abandoned us
All we had
Reduced to dust

Can’t you see
The urgency?
Spiraling uncertainty
There must be change
So we can save
Save ourselves from divergency

Yet, here we are
Left to bleed
You abandoned us

Abandon us
You turned your backs on all of us
Abandoned us
All we had
Reduced to dust
