Explain Things Songtext
von In Evil Hour

Just another victim
Of privilege and pride and power denied
Hold your feelings, you will
Place on the side of feminine worlds
We are one fever
And our lives are mine, so no time for pride

These expectations are based on archaic lies

Crisis in all of these traditions
If not this, then what will you be?
Just another unconscious victim of patriarchy
And in all of your rash confusion
Lost a masculine ID
Retreat back into your safe space
And explain things to me


Yet another victim
Of systems designed to suppress your own kind
Can′t you see that you have
Built your own rage to justify your lies?
Written through the ages
Your words to the poor have been so much a lie

These expectations are based on archaic lies

Crisis in all of these traditions
If not this, then what will you be?
Just another unconscious victim of patriarchy
And in all of your rash confusion
Lost a masculine ID
Retreat back into your safe space
And explain things to me

Explain it all, explain it all, explain it to me
Lay it on, lay it on, lay it on me

Crisis in all of these traditions
If not this, then what will you be?
Just another unconscious victim of patriarchy
And in all of your rash confusion
Lost a masculine ID


That thing you are experiencing feels like vulnerability
Crisis in all of these traditions
If not this, then what will you be?
Just another unconscious victim of patriarchy
And in all of your rash confusion
Lost a masculine ID
Retreat back into your safe space
And explain things to me
