Consider me, consider this
Empty phrases kissing on, on emptiness

Hold me down 'cause I don't wanna wait
For some unemployment plan to set the records straight
Shut it up 'cause I don't wanna hear
About prospects of redemption by the things we fear

Hold me down 'cause I don't wanna go
Things are moving backwards, baby or not at all
Set it up 'cause this is killing me
I'm just waiting for something that will set me free for real

Consider me, consider this
Empty phrases kissing on, on emptiness
You see now, baby, how this fire turns to flames
And I kept hoping that things would change

But now I see that it's up to, it's up to you and me
So, let's get together, get organized
And baby, let's, let's set ourselves free, come on

You see now, baby, how this fire turns to flames
And all they're offering is bigger cages, longer chains
