ANACRUSIS - FAR TOO LONG lyrics

[Lyrics by K. Nardi]

We have pretended far too long

Ignoring far too much

Accountability long overdue

We have neglected far too long

Assuming far too much

Hoping out ignorance will see us through

We have hated far too long

Hurting far too much

Feelings of compassion stripped away

We have followed far too long

Denying far too much

Responsibility has gone astray

I hope in my heart of hearts

With all my soul and mind

That it's not irreversible

That this isn't all there is

We have accused for far too long

Blaming far too much

Never really able to accept

We have doubted far too long

Distrusting far too much

Our contempt leaves no room for empathy

I hope in my heart of hearts

With all my soul and mind

That it's not irreversible

That this isn't all there is
