Lyrics Gang Of Youths – Restraint

Text:

Hey!
Did the killer in your body, the intruder in our union, kill your rage?
Where’s your sense of adventure?
Has the power and the danger been restrained?

I’m not asking you for answers
I’m not asking of you things that we can’t change
But you brave and burdened starlet
I am asking you to shock yourself awake
Cause the soul
It will not cater to our reason
Nor the passing of the seasons in our wake
I’m not buying what they’re selling
I’m not taking what they’re throwing in my face

So don’t shut me out again
So don’t shut me out again
So don’t shut me out again

Hey!
I’m not ending in no contest
I’m not bending nor will I equivocate
Unlike weaker of our genus
We evolve from every terrible mistake

How can’t you see?
Can’t you see me take off my winter clothes?
Those bastards fear us radicals the most
Cause the soul will not cater to our reason
Nor the passing of the seasons in our wake
I’m not buying what they’re selling
I’m not taking what they’re throwing in our face

So don’t shut me out again
So don’t shut me out again
