A TIME TO STAND LYRICS

"The Beast"

IT'S TIME

TIME TO UNLEASH THE BEAST
And then to realize
Its teeth are fucking gone
Still with its bleeding gums
It ignores the "no offence meant"s and "I don't mind"s
But cant bite through the "please not in front of my eyes"s
And the "please don't get me wrong"s

A deathtrap made of bagatelles
A spear made up of nothingness
This is how it is

Oh boy, you're drowning in the quicksand of the things
That you didn't mean that way
Here's some advice:
Don't say 'em then!

What's left of you fits in your big mouth
Next to your bitten tongue
What's left of us is gaining strength and
The beast is out there to terrify

The suburban homes full of open-minded dads
But brokeback mountain scared the shit out of their pants
I know your mom's not in for racist behavior
But better to keep an eye on the immigrated neighbors

When was the last time you called somebody a fag?
Or just joined the laughter cause you felt too powerless
See, I don't wanna spoil the fun
But you might wanna reflect on the things you've done

What's left of you is not much more than
Your fear and hatred and
What's left of us is gaining strength and
All we have left is tolerance
All we have left is dignity

Time to unleash the beast
And then to decimate the ones
Who pave the way for prejudice
And when you feel the waves crash in above your head
Don't bury it on the ocean floor
Just remember the beast
And to wake it up
So go ahead
And make it rise to life instead

ALL WE HAVE LEFT
Is dignity
ALL WE HAVE
Dignity
