Paroles de Music and politics

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
I would tell you that sometimes its easier to desire
And pursue the attention and admiration of 100 strangers
Than it is to accept the love and loyalty of those closest to me

And i would tell you that sometimes
I prefer to look at myself through someone elses eyes
Eyes that arent clouded with the tears of knowing
What an asshole i can be, as yours are

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
I might be able to listen in silence to your concerns
Rather than hearing everything as an accusation
Or an indictment against me

And i would tell you that sometimes
I use sex to avoid communication
Its the best escape when were down on our luck
But i can express more emotions than laughter, anger, and lets fuck

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
I would tell you that i pooped in my own dog dish
And sometimes i would rather face not eating
Than face licking it clean and admitting when im selfish

And id tell you that im suffering from the worst type of loneliness
The loneliness of being misunderstood
Or more poignantly the loneliness of being afraid
To allow myself, to be understood

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
I would tell you that the personal revolution
Is far more difficult
And is the first step in any revolution

If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics
If ever i would stop thinking about music and politics

I would tell you that music is the expression of emotion
And that politics is merely the decoy of perception
