Letra de I Abstain

[Verse 1]
I abstain
Summon my pride
What pride behind your blinkered eyes?
Your vigilance is shit
The lads together, you fall
Smug complacency
Notions of reserving the right
To think with your fists
I abstain from this mundane apathy
[Verse 2]
Commited to "All for red, white and blue"
In effect you're fighting for what's really fighting you
Grit those teeth, push out those chests
Tears only for the flag
Always the brave patriot as you slip to second class
But you stand stead fast
[Verse 3]
People are not subjects
Why should the few get more respect?
Open your eyes!
[Verse 4]
Imperialism feeds off you
Not patrons but patronised
Open your eyes!
[Verse 5]
They're shaping you - you're trapped with 'pomp and
Circumstance'
Lose your discretion
Sodom, you'll not fall from grace
Endorse their rhetoric
You fade, they prosper
They're shaping you - you're trapped with 'pomp and
Circumstance'
Lose your discretion
Sodom, you'll not fall from grace
Endorse their rhetoric
You fade, they prosper
[Outro]
I abstain!
Don't be a colonial slave
Don't substantiate the act
