from Good Times With Evil by Stuart O'Connor

lyrics

By the time it took my mindset to alter it's course
I had begun a regime of refined remorse
It took days at first to calculate just where I'd gone wrong
And though it tied my head in knots
They were bows all along

For the gift of realisation is a prize rarely won
And the gravity of the lesson didn't hurt as it could've done
So I'm sending forth my gratitude
In the shape of this song
You made a stubborn mind realise
That it could just be wrong

And that doesn't happen often

A revolution over stubborn apathy
Is a simple application of modern democracy
But it's how the rugs pulled from under our feet
So we just lie and gaze at stars never minding deceit
But the steps towards rebelling are more than theory
We get up
We dust down
We start shifting our feet
till the mindset that we capture has embraced simplicity
Independence in stature to simply disagree

But that doesn't happen Easily
