Lyrics
So It Goes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This
Is a call
To notice that
Which has gone unnoticed
That all of us
Are walking wounded
Bearing hidden scars
And subtle bruises
The casualties of a war
Inside our hearts
We submit ourselves
To abstract forces
Ruled by the concept
That living is surviving
We are suffocating on
Our own tangled aspirations
Mired down
By the restraints
Forced on us
The fear and doubt
That serves to crush
We can no longer take satisfaction
In our suffering
Now is the time to arm ourselves
With the knowledge
That we can achieve
A state of independance
One of personal anarchy
We can end this war
See past the darkened veil
Pulled over our eyes
We will make the world at large
Recognize our cries
I will dedicate myself
To reclaiming the disputed
Landscape of my soul
I will repel each
Incursion visited upon my spirit
Cast light upon
The insidious decay of volition
Surely, I do protest
Let this be a message
That here I stand
