Blameless Songtext
von Chris Knox

Look at us all
A shamble of rejects with nothing to show for our lives
We recall
The things that we′ve done in the past that we thought at the time
Were a ball
But they're shallow and mean nothing more than the taint of decay
Which is so hard to leach away

Now we have grown
Our maturity gives us the power to reap all the seeds
We have sown
And the lives we have led give us wisdom to hand to the kids
That we own
Who rejoice in the knowledge that every last thing that we say
Will aid them on their way


What a farce
That we′re handing down attitudes useless to us
Given strength
By a past that invests stale redundancies quite undeserving with some
Sort of class
That is swallowed by children who know that their parents won't say
Anything that isn't okay

Look at us all
Hollow eyes, hollow minds, hollow words that we use without thought
To install
All the shit that we hated when we were like sponges
Receptive and small
And we dare to act startled that our world is fashioned this way
As we stammer and say
It isn′t our fault
