lyrics

I think we were bonded by our disdain for so many things
Oh tell me we were fond of other things about each other
Eventually I couldn't move with your judgement weighing down on me
so I set it down. I broke a tooth and my long fast eating the hardest truth about you. Well what did it say about me?

Cut branches blooming in the burn piles of the Spring
something's still living but starved for meaning
as the world spoon fed us grief, we swallowed so we could speak
and so we wore our rage on our sleeves, badge of honor we believed
the uniform we put on unknowingly
proud of all we couldn't do wearing a straitjacket of identity
Couldn't move. All those contradictions pulling from both sides
We had to break our arms and our ties over that binary affliction
that held our hearts and minds.
We thought that we were hard but what good is hard if you won't complicate it with being compassionate?
