Words & Contradictions – Lyrics
If a man thinks he’s better and he thinks he’s not part
of the wrong goin’ on and puts himself aside
it’s there that he’s wrong and the circle will start
and he’s caught in confusion of pride
CHORUS:
Words roll on and they fade
and words become empty with age
I would be a martyr but I never made the grade
and my words roll and fall down the page
Few have been willing to fight – now they’re gone
Dying to prove that they cared
The remaining have noticed but little was done
and their tongues are beating the air
Mr. Lincoln you left us and gave us your fame
Remembered a good man who tried
and since you’ve grown famous and we all know your name
But we wouldn’t if you hadn’t died
REPEAT CHORUS
And maybe if I had one more than one life
I might give my spare to a cause
But I’d rather be breathin’ and sharin’ the blame
than remembered a good man who was
The talkers are talkin’ themselves out of breath
and If talkin’ was doin’ then talkin’ would do
Someday we’ll all talk each other to death
and then We’ll all be martyrs too
REPEAT CHORUS
