lyrics

Why can't we talk about it?
A word is a word until it's poisonous
I checked my privilege
Maybe that's not everything

Hate is in your heart, too
Judging is your sin, too
Preaching to cover your ass
Because your upbringing was rich

That vision of a sterile future
Is something that is coming
Your ideas get left unchecked
And spread a new contagion

Society's quicksand has grown as of late
We're running and sinking
The worst of them all are dying of old age
So shut up and live

You're correct, doesn't mean that you're right

Take it slow
Just calm down

Heavy Wood New Haven, Connecticut

Sometimes inside jokes take on a life of their own and murder their creators in cold blood. Shit happens, man.
