lyrics

it’s hard to stay soft
when there’s an empire on the loose
frost bite cancer kiss on the loop
with no justice just justification
there’s no justice just constant
justification after justification

it’s hard to stay soft
when half strangers spit
and cry laughter in your face
c a u s e t h e y ’ r e l o s t
a n d d u m b f o u n d
in everyman’s land
lost and dumbfound
in everyman’s land

it’s hard to stay soft
w h e n y o u f i n d
i t ’ s y o u r t u r n
to fall pregnant
with your heart
coming out of exile
hearts coming out of exile

it’s hard to stay soft
when forced to reach beyond beyond
beyond dimension beyond skin
exceeding even faith
in each other’s pain
releasing lovehopefear
the chaos of allowing
knowing there’s no waste of darkness
there’s no waste of darkness
that’s why we listen to Blak Sonshine

it’s hard to stay soft
even harder because we get to fulfill
this contradiction together
even harder to unlock
bigger picture focus
to go future free
when the future isn’t
what it used to be
the future isnt
what it used to be
it’s hard to stay soft
s t a y a s y o u c a n
