Lyrics

Sigh, and they ask what’s wrong
Speak, and they question your tone

Well, I like your tone
You neither water down or butter up your words
That venture is thick
No point in thinning down what’s poured out strong
And all that was put in you was made to start the fire
So how many strawmen will compete with you for the lighter?

They can’t forgive you
You’ve done nothing wrong
No vindication
For unbroken laws
They can’t forgive you
You’ve done nothing wrong

Laugh, and they say, have you no shame?
Cry, and they ask where your song is

You left it at home
It might seem out of tune to rust and worn out strings
They want you to leave
And you assure them that you wish you could
Still there is a purpose in the mention of buried trouble
So is it division to cause discussion of hidden muzzles?

They can’t forgive you
You’ve done nothing wrong
No vindication
For unbroken laws

Oh
They won’t forgive you
You’ve done nothing wrong
