Tongue-tied words of disappointment Stitched up lies to shame your daughter Her skies are darker now Her eyes are lower now No breath in the flood of separation The disease is more than color We're separated from our Lover We cannot fake our friends or fight until the death We can't stay dead We can't stay dead We can't stay dead We still stand above oppression Above the lies that chain our wrists We can be stronger now Break out of the pattern somehow There’s hope for the kingdom of our freedom We are idiots to Love Complacent with confusion and fear We don't like to admit that hate still exists Hemmed up in our skin

Lyrics:

Tongue-tied words of disappointment
Stitched up lies to shame your daughter
Her skies are darker now
Her eyes are lower now
No breath in the flood of separation

The disease is more than color
We're separated from our Lover
We cannot fake our friends
or fight until the death

We can't stay dead
We can't stay dead
We can't stay dead

We still stand above oppression
Above the lies that chain our wrists
We can be stronger now
Break out of the pattern somehow
There’s hope for the kingdom of our freedom

We are idiots to Love
Complacent with confusion and fear
We don't like to admit that hate still exists
Hemmed up in our skin
