lyrics

the occupation slows its breath
a nation turns inward
like tantric sex without the climax
no release
just the occupation

lessons learned in life
we’re all intertwined
so why are the dearest things
the hardest to find

open up your heart
become one with us
open up your minds eye
with love and trust

the occupation raises the rent
we turn to self abuse
for enlightenment without the stigma
rid of the guilt
just emancipation

the highs and lows of living free
i love life’s rhyme and mystery
just as it loves me

open up your heart
become one with us
open up your minds eye
with love and trust
