Grievance [Tampa, Florida August 12 2000]

[Verse 1] Have a drink they're buying Bottom of, bottle of denial [Chorus 1] Big guy,... big eye,... watching me... Have to wonder what it sees... (Sin...) Progress... laced with... ramifications... Freedom's big plunge [Chorus 2] Pull the innocent from a crowd Raise the sticks then bring them down If they fail to obey... oh if they fail to obey [Verse 2] For every tool they lend us... a loss of independence [Chorus 3] I pledge my grievance to the flag Because you don't give blood... to take it back again Oh we're all deserving something more [Chorus 1] Progress,... taste it,... invest-it-all Champagne breakfast for everyone [Chorus 2] Break the innocent when they're proud... Raise the stakes,... then bring em down... If they fail to obey... oh if they fail to obey [Chorus 3] Pledge your grievance to the flag Because you don't give blood... then take it back again Oh we're all deserving something more [Outro] I want to breathe Follow the scene I want to taste Everyone I see I want to run when I'm up high I want to run into the sea I only want life.... to be... I just want to be... I will feel alive... as long as I am free...
