Stand Tight
Accept Lyrics

My bones are trembling
I am scared of you and what you will do to me.

Veins are filled with ice
I feel coldness and fear in my body because of you.

I see you swagger through
I see you walk with confidence and pride, even though you are causing me pain.

Your boots are shiny, too
You take great care of your appearance, even if it means causing me discomfort and pain by making me clean your boots.

I still feel your torture
The pain and torment you put me through is still with me, even when you are not physically hurting me anymore.

Messing up my life
The effect of your actions is causing chaos and destruction in my life.

I cannot forget
The pain and memories of what you have done to me will never leave me.

How you showed me your despise
You made it clear that you hated me and had no respect for me as a person.

Deep down in the gravel
I feel trapped and powerless, like I am stuck in the dirt or mud.

I lie and wait for relieve
All I can do is wait and hope for the pain and suffering to end.

And I hear the orders you scream
Your harsh and abusive commands are ringing in my ears, haunting me.

Sounds like a choir to me
Your orders and abuse have become so constant that they almost sound like a normal part of life to me.

Stand tight all right
I am supposed to stay still and not move, no matter how much pain or discomfort I am in.

And assume the position we all stand together
I am expected to submit to your authority and follow your commands, even if it means sacrificing my own well-being.

I know I am unconscious
I am aware that I am not in control of myself, and that you have taken away my ability to make choices.

Just what you like to see
You enjoy having this power over me and taking away my agency.

You say you've got to drill me
You are threatening to hurt me even more, like a drill going into my body.

And you let me kiss your gun
You are forcing me to show affection for something that could kill me, as a way of showing your control over me.

I have to clean your boots
You are forcing me to do menial and demeaning tasks for you, even if it means causing me pain or discomfort.

In every way you like
You have complete control over how I do this task, and I have no say in how I go about it.

You deny my human rights
You are treating me like a thing or an object, rather than a person with inherent dignity and value.

You don't make it easy
You make it deliberately difficult for me to do what you want, as a way of asserting your control and power over me.

And I am so down
I am feeling low and defeated, like there is no way out of this situation.

So devoted and humbled to you
Despite everything you have done to me, I still feel like I have to submit to your will and serve you in any way you want.

What more can a slave remain
I feel completely controlled and owned by you, like there is no hope of ever escaping this situation.

Before he floods away
Before I completely lose my sense of self and become completely overwhelmed by your power and control.

We all stand together
The others who are being controlled and hurt by you are also expected to submit and obey your authority.
