Lyrics to Infertile Ground
From solitude we watch it burn
Both sides go to uprising in turn
Pushing farther apart
A magnified blur
It's harder to see the righteous mind to believe or the right side of history
And we'll burn it down
We burn it down to infertile ground
Dirt. Ashes to violent soil
You haven't lived long enough to read the book that you'll burn
If you efface the slur there's no lesson to learn?
Shame awakened to barren earth
It's hard to believe in reason for the reprieve and revising history
And we'll burn it down
We'll burn it down to infertile ground
Disavowed until we are clean and free of doubt
Run for your life
Both sides go to uprising in turn
Pushing farther apart
A magnified blur
It's harder to see the righteous mind to believe or the right side of history
And we'll burn it down
We burn it down to infertile ground
Dirt. Ashes to violent soil
You haven't lived long enough to read the book that you'll burn
If you efface the slur there's no lesson to learn?
Shame awakened to barren earth
It's hard to believe in reason for the reprieve and revising history
And we'll burn it down
We'll burn it down to infertile ground
Disavowed until we are clean and free of doubt
Run for your life
