intolerance lectures reason by Puppeteer C) 2024

1
you are a racist, a fascist, a jerk
and you deserve to die
your only purpose is to celebrate me
you are a sheep under the majesty
of sky
laughing is heresy
dancing can hurt
someone who's somewhere with their face in the dirt
decree the duels
to death with words
so many schools
of fish eat fish whose flesh is picked by beaks of starving birds

2
what i believe is obvious fact
so i'm obliged to act
i know i know, that's more than you
who's always doubting what is real
or true
give me attention
so i know i exist
i need your eyes to make my way through the mist
i hate you so
wish you would go
and yet we know
that you and i would cease to be without those who catch and those who throw

Middle Verse
la la la
la la la la
la la

3
the more you know, the more i stand
to lose of my command
i am the darkness that once covered the land
if you're still weak, that was by
my hand
i love to hate
love to create
confusion when i get you into a state
where feelings flow
and thinking goes
it slides
into two sides
those who catch and those who throw

Repeat Middle Verse
