swallow Songtext
von FACT

We′re not gonna swallow it
It's not the picture that we were shown
Faded more than a little bit
And we don′t recognize it now that we're grown
We're not gonna swallow it
It′s not the picture that we were shown
Spattered with inequality
And we are swinging at the end of the rope

No one
Knows why


We′re not gonna stomach it
It's not the picture that we were sold
Nothing is how they painted it
And ideology left out in the cold
We′re not gonna stomach it
It's not the picture that we were sold
Cut off from common decency
And it′s so different to what we were told

Bow down
You bow down and you'd rather believe that all we pass on is part of our DNA
It′s cos of us it continues and unquestionably it's all on us now to make it OK
You bow down and you'd rather believe that all we pass on is part of our DNA
It′s only us that can change it into equality, it′s only us that can take it away

We're not gonna swallow it
It′s not the picture that we were shown
Faded more than a little bit
And we don't recognize it now that we′re grown
We're not gonna swallow it
It′s not the picture that we were shown
Spattered with inequality
And we are swinging at the end of the rope
