Words & music by Francis Voignier 2006

lyrics

Let It Out

Let it out
Unleash the burning ache
The time has come
For all to share the blame
Most of us have had enough
Of the precious few
That plunder away our supplies
While playing the game
Of distorting the truth

Let it out
Turn up the silent scream
Don’t run away
From the smoke of that screen
The end can never justify
The evil of these wars
It takes a fool to glorify
The genocidal nature
Of these calls

It doesn’t take a revolution
Don’t let them make you
Believe it’s a crime
To speak an open mind
To walk tall and proud
Without the blinds
To share a common ground
Though empowered as one
Without the fights

Let it out
The internalized pain
The guilt you feel
Was infused in your brain
Time for us
To step away
From the central stage
This fool has been made a display
But this fool has come forward
To turn the page

It doesn’t take a revolution
Don’t let them make you
Believe it’s a crime
To speak an open mind
To walk tall and proud
Without the blinds
To share a common ground
Though empowered as one
Without the fights
