lyrics

is there a limit to the weight of human suffering?
lifting the burden of undue responsibility
forcing a choice that puts them directly in harm’s way

we see it in your eyes (I only care about me)
no way to change your mind (I only care about me)
political will fades (I only care about me)
these empty tired tirades (I only care about me)
just sit tight, we’re coming for you

critical thinking and compassion are not enemies
don’t let your first reaction guide healthcare delivery
your track record is sheepish / risk taking here is needed
why can’t you commiserate with anything you can’t relate to?

... don’t let us disrupt what you do // just sit tight, we’re coming for you

what are the choices that we have in facing current facts
get into politics or scream on front lines pushing back
no matter where you land, you’ll always feel the lack of impact
a tangled mass of wires sitting in dens of liars
shortfalls unequivocal / just stand up straight and do it all

you’ll see it in my eyes (I’ll make you care about me)
if this won’t change your mind (I’ll make you care about me)
archaic views will die (I’ll make you care about me)
won’t let this chance slip by (I’ll make you care about me)

... we’ll get you one way or another // don’t let us disrupt your othering
just sit tight, we’re coming for you
