Offense Songtext
von Lich King

The dawn of an age of change
An emerging of human truth
Pushed back against fear and hate
With a slowly awakening youth
To walk in the light of day
No shame to live and then live
That′s all we ever wanted
But that's too much for you to give
If I′ve given offense
I will beg your pardon
And assure you're fine
If you've taken offense
Well that′s your problem
So how about you beg mine
The tide is shifting now
As numbers grow too great to fight
Violence like brother could be good
Right side of history, left side of right
The scum and the misled fools
Should no longer hold us at bay


The choice as we march forward
Is get crushed or get out of our way
I am not in offense
And if you take issue
I don′t give a damn
I'm offended that you think
I should be embarrassed
Of whom I love or what I am
Don′t (don't)
Don′t stop
Don't stop resisting
No (no)
No more
No going back
Rise (rise)
Rise up
Rise and be counted
Take (take)
Take it
Take the offense
Offense
You take offense
That we′re not staying hidden like mice
Expense
At great expense
To plow down seed and pay the price
Offense
I take offense
To suicides, beatings and rantings of priests
Relent
So let's commence
'Cause you can′t live among us in peace
We won′t take the offense
Those we oppose will be left behind
We know a better world beckons
And we won't be held back by the willfully blind
So don′t (don't)
Don′t stop
Don't stop resisting
No (no)
No more
No going back
Rise (rise)
Rise up
Rise and be counted
Take (take)
Take it
Take the offense
