For Broken Ears
Chuck Ragan Lyrics

Where are the ones who carry the guns to the far away lands with the blackened suns from the smokened narrow minds.
Asking where those who go to war in distant lands for reasons that are unclear, often due to close-minded thinking, are.

The half-truth trails and the holy lies of an empty heart and overflowing mouth, a plastic smile and a cowards frown.
Referring to the deceitful language used by those in power, who smile but are cowardly, and whose hearts and mouths are empty despite their holy façade.

Reprecussions come around when the word named free burns to the ground somehow.
When the idea of freedom is destroyed, there will be consequences for those who allowed it to happen.

Where are thh deaf and where are the dumb from the side of the tracks where no reason comes from and the tables never bare.
Questioning where those who are marginalized and ignored in society, where reason is often absent, are.

The water runs and momma's always there so separates the world from the with such words and such words would cause a shot heard round the world.
Describing the importance of a mother's presence in separating oneself from the world's negativity and how the right words can cause revolutionary change.

A justice that never hurt at all.
Highlighting how justice that is fair and balanced should not cause any harm to those involved.

So down down down like a ball of flames, to the rotten core filling up with names of hypocrites what a massive list, don't exclude yourself from it.
Describing the downfall of those who are hypocritical and emphasizing that everyone should be accountable for their actions.

Don't compromise administration lies carried out and covered up with time, carried out and turned around to shine. High on a pedestal of broken lies.
Advising against compromising with those in power who lie and manipulate the truth, even when those lies are eventually uncovered and glamorized.

The passion speaks loud for itself falls on broken ears and off the value shelf into the dirt left to the wind.
Stressing how passionate messages can go unheard and are often not valued by society, left to fall into oblivion.

Coming up strong ready to begin to obliterate the word from the start with such ideas come and such ideas cause a spark that will set a blaze and leave the embers red until the end of days.
Asserting the power behind a new generation of ideas and how they can spark a revolution that will last until the end of time.
