I used to think bruises were pretty
but blood is better left in the vessels that carry it
We never deserved to see under our own skin
not in the way you captured it on film
We deserve
I deserve
You deserve
better than manufactured indifference
to War and Violence
Hey, Hey, Hey, Look at me
I'm not mad at anyone
I'm not mad at you
I like the way you pray
I can't even say that I believe in peace anymore
peace is the new villian
But I can say
that I don't believe in bloodshed
I know we are bleeding
But I would rather cry
than spill your blood
I would rather be poor
than empty your pockets
It scares me that the people that are pulling the trigger
are not holding the gun
It scares me that the people being shot
are paying for the gun
It scares me that I'm always talking about things
that I don't know about
