House Arrest

Strike Anywhere


House Arrest" 

Hear the clock ticks 
like the bombs 
of history 
jail time 
ticking outside 
they keep us treading the lines 
the stocks and figures 
hands shake 
then triggers 
powers-that-be 
clean up 
the waste of our dreams 
all your trends, 
back ends 
and we all know what it means 
I walk this wasteland with you 
but it's the least I can do 
I walk this wasteland with you 
and it's the least I can do 

and they say 
give it time 
while we stand 
in the lines 
and 
our anthems 
diluted to bind us 
trapped in this cage 
it defines us 

for 
a fairer future 
these flags we burn 
in the name 
of 'civilization' 
repression 
unlearn 

I walk this wasteland with you 
but it's the least I can do 
I walk this wasteland with you 
but it's the least I can do 

All the lines 
yesterday went by 
All the lines 
yesterday went blind 

this toxic nerve 
release us 
this toxic nerve 
release us 
this toxic nerve 
release 
and get us the 
fuck out of here 

I walk this wasteland with you 
but it's the least I can do 
I walk this wasteland with you 
but it's the least I can do 

I walk this wasteland with you 
I walk this wasteland with you 
I walk this wasteland with you 
and it's the least I can do
