When women are screaming at the government
for 13 hours straight
and these old white men refuse to listen?
Our government has failed
it cannot be fixed
if thousands of voices screaming
in unison cannot be heard
What can I do?
What do I say?
How can I scream
when my voice grows hoarse
Fist in the air
Burn it to the ground
blargghhh
I wrote this song after the filibuster of Wendy Davis. It's about my feeling of utter uselessness and hopelessness to make a real change within our current capitalist system.
This entire album rips. I've had this on repeated play several times since it came out. I wish I had heard it a week earlier when they played in Boston. One of my fav albums in this genre period. slimes
