You Are No Exception

Someone's banging on the echo chamber door
 If it opens the voices will lose their renowned candour
 Images of violence worn proudly on a puffed out chest
 Legendary tolerance oversold at best
 No solace in the silence
 No justice in the quiet
 When they survive in shadows
 Cast by statues in the daylight
 Short sighted
 Shorter memory
 Ignorant underdog
 You're barking so loud
 Ignorant underdog
 You make me wonder
 Am I living in a nation worth saving
 Appeal to purity
 Have you ever considered you're not as special as you think
 You're no exception
 You think you're defined by a line in the sand
 The misperceived grace of your homeland
 A free thinker until you're forced to face up to your own reflection
 No solace in the silence
 No justice in the quiet
 When they survive in shadows
 Cast by statues in the daylight
 No solace
 No justice
 Just a tree that never grows
 Just a bird that never sings
 No solace
 No justice
 Just a fish that never swims
 Just a bell that never rings
