In Their Hearts Is Right Lyrics
There's something pathetic in the world today
And I don't know how it all began
As if all the shame and punishment will finally make me understand
A word means nothing wanting action
Intentions are valuable as deeds
And a wound can dog you for a lifetime
Unless it only makes you bleed
Everybody knows what's in their heart is right
I'm just a termite on an ant hill
I think about it every single day
A senseless being lacking inspiration
Just waiting to be blown away
Everybody knows what's in their heart is right
And I don't know how it all began
As if all the shame and punishment will finally make me understand
Intentions are valuable as deeds
And a wound can dog you for a lifetime
Unless it only makes you bleed
I think about it every single day
A senseless being lacking inspiration
Just waiting to be blown away

Great song. society values things that are not real. Imaginary things (a persons word, intentions etc) are important.. .they can wound you for a lifetime. But the actual physical things are ignored (unless it only makes you bleed).
How did we get here?
PARADOX. Plain and simple.
Look at the album cover. A hand pointing a finger at a person. we don't know why, but it is. Everybody thinks they are doing the right thing. Lets point a finger and put down one person, because it benefits society that this one person is pushed down. It is pathetic. Pushing people down to the point at which they kill themselves. Intentions.(Intentions are valuable as deeds And a wound can dog you for a lifetime Unless it only makes you bleed) We punish people for no reason. we try to make them understand the way society wants them to be, until they submit or die. (As if all the shame and punishment will finally make me understand). Those people we put down then wait for their end, because they feel worthless. (I'm just a termite on an ant hill I think about it every single day A senseless being lacking inspiration Just waiting to be blown away).
