Sidelined

歌詞

When I was distracted And tricked to look away Cowering from menace I would capitulate ONE BY ONE, My freedoms slipped away ONE BY ONE, My senses dulled I was sidelined, SIDELINED Easy to be cast aside, Incorrect to accept This captive position I was sidelined, SIDELINED Easy to be cast aside, Incorrect to accept The thin veil of national pride When I let my guard down I heard the demagogues Cunning with their language I joined up with the mob ONE BY ONE, I fell for clever threats ONE BY ONE, I danced with demons I was sidelined, SIDELINED Easy to be cast aside, Incorrect to accept This captive position I was sidelined, SIDELINED Easy to be cast aside, Incorrect to accept The thin veil of national pride, But now I'm opening my eyes TRUTH AND GUIDANCE, made clear by outright lies TRUTH AND GUIDANCE, two things we've been denied Trying to fight out of this paper bag Trying to find my way and take this country back Trying to fight out of this paper bag Trying to figure out how to throw around these Undervalued hands
