Steve Lindsley - Another Nail In The Hands Of Love

from Round 38, Week 4 by Monday Morning 3AM Music Club

about

Stuff that needs to be said.

lyrics

There’s a crack in the foundation
Deep along the edge
It’s impossible to miss it
Only when truth is left unsaid
We all know it’s been broken for awhile
We’ve seen it there before
And still we feed on the narratives
Embrace the lies as we make up more

Oh, oh oh
Another brick in the walls between us
Oh, oh oh
Another nail in the hands of love

They say it’s just the order of things
Not everyone’s the same
As they exercise their privilege
And point the finger where to cast the blame
They claim not to be the broken ones
That was so very long ago
But they’re living out the legacy
You always reap what others sow

Oh, oh oh
Another brick in the walls between us
Oh, oh oh
Another nail in the hands of love

See the flames go
Higher and higher
Here we are living
Out on a wire
See the flames go
Higher and higher
We are still living
Out on a wire

I am tired of the excuses
My patience is worn thin
But not as much as those who have to live
In the shadows of our sins
So take your manufactured indignation
Shrouded in piety
You might fool the blinded masses
But you’re not fooling me

Oh, oh oh
Another brick in the walls between us
Oh, oh oh
Another nail in the hands of love
