Dissidents Lyrics

[Verse 1]
One more young writer slid away in the night
Over the border he will drown in light

[Pre-Chorus]
(And the man said)
Hold it (hold it)
(He said)
Wait a minute (wait a minute)
I can't read my writing

[Chorus]
My own writing
Like tiny insects (my writing)
In the palm of history (my writing)
A domino effect (my writing)
In a cloud of mystery (my own writing)
Is an iron fist (my writing)
In a glove full of Vaseline (my writing)
Dip the fuse in the kerosene (my own writing)
I too became a dissident
Became a dissident
Became a dissident

[Speech in Russian]

[Verse 2]
Courting disaster we ran in the night
Wings of an angel were torn in flight

[Pre-Chorus]
(When the man said)
Check it (hold it)
(He said)
Verify it (wait a minute)
It's all here in writing

[Chorus]
My own writing
Like tiny insects (my writing)
In the palm of history (my writing)
A domino effect
And an early end to the story (my writing)
Is an iron fist (my writing)
In a glove full of Vaseline (my writing)
Dip the fuse in the kerosene (my own writing)
I too became a dissident
Became a dissident
Became a dissident

[Miscellaneous voice samples]

[Pre-Chorus]
Check it
Said, verify it
It's all here in writing

[Chorus]
Down in writing
At the hands of the press (my writing)
And in the eyes of the government (my writing)
I fell from grace (my writing)
I too became a dissident
I was a dissident, yeah

Like tiny insects (my writing)
In the palm of history (my writing)
A domino effect
And an early end to the story (my writing)
Is an iron fist
In a glove full of Vaseline
Dip the fuse in the kerosene
I too became a dissident
Became a dissident
A dissi-, a dissi-, a dissi-
