《Best Of》Speaking in degradation
A conversation can take a sudden turn
And reaching the point of violence
Because your silence left you
Without a hand to hold
Your past will lead you on to
Making a final judgment
Based on your bias will
Never bring you forward
Terror should never guide you
For even the fearful can take
A-beating in the end
Suspicion gets you nowhere
Those who denounce a way of life
Will stand alone
Left to a-tone their social blunders
If you gun down the messenger
You guarantee that he will be made
Into a saint a martyr of the free word
I will say
(I will say)
What I think
(What I think)
I will do
(I will do)
What I say
(what I say)
When liberty seems out of reach
We'll fight for our freedom of speech
Requiem aeternam dona eis
Domine, et lux perpetua luceat eis
Missing a simple context
A mental weakness can throw
You out of balance
Listen, respect each other
Then you'll discover it mustn't
Always end in hate
It's not too late for mercy
Those who denounce a way of life
Will stand alone
Left to a-tone their social blunders
If you gun down the messenger
You guarantee that he will be made
Into a saint a martyr of the free word
I will say
(I will say)
What I think
(what I think)
I will do
(I will do)
What I say
(what I say)
When tolerance seems out of sight
We will fight
When liberty seems out of reach
We'll fight for our freedom of speech
