letra de negative conviction - kevin devine

the time for speaking clear
has never been more clearly here
it’s okay if you’re afraid of what’s to come
leave the time for being shocked
frozen on a different clock
it’s okay – come to grips with what’s been done

there’s no sin
they won’t claim
it’s theirs alone to reframe
as a virtue handed down from on high
and it’s perverse and grotesque
but hold your heart
keep your head
there’s no joy, therе’s no love behind their еyes
it’s all negative conviction
and it’s eating them alive inside

if you’re scared what’s been lost carries far too steep a cost
i understand
it would be weirder if you weren’t
and if you’re scared we’re dead and done
what’s the point? the monsters won
it’s okay
it’s a strong, convincing current
but a lie is still a lie
however ably amplified
at the core is a hole holding nothing
if you feel small and ashamed
it’s designed to work that way
don’t attach
find the light, and just keep running
from their negative conviction
cynical, insidious, and crushing

i mean – they tried to steal jesus christ
turn him bitter, cruel, and blind
wrapped in razor wire, stock exchange, and blood l-st
it’s perverse & grotesque
because what i heard & what i read
said love’s alive and it animates our oneness
and no negative conviction
gets to dig inside and take that meaning from us
