You Are No Exception

Someone’s banging on the echo chamber door If it opens the voices will lose their renowned candour Images of violence worn proudly on a puffed out chest Legendary tolerance oversold at best No solace in the silence No justice in the quiet When they survive in shadows Cast by statues in the daylight Short sighted Shorter memory Ignorant underdog You’re barking so loud Ignorant underdog You make me wonder Am I living in a nation worth saving Appeal to purity Have you ever considered you’re not as special as you think You’re no exception You think you’re defined by a line in the sand The misperceived grace of your homeland A free thinker until you’re forced to face up to your own reflection No solace in the silence No justice in the quiet When they survive in shadows Cast by statues in the daylight No solace No justice Just a tree that never grows Just a bird that never sings No solace No justice Just a fish that never swims Just a bell that never rings
