About

This song is a commentary on how often people prefer to live in ignorant bliss about difficult and dark topics – both pertaining to them and to others – rather than face the truth soberly and deal with it realistically.

Doublespeak Lyrics

[Vocals: Dustin Kensrue]

[Intro:]
I drug my heart with doublespeak
All my misgivings disappear
It helps to keep my conscience clean
The ends will justify the means
But still I’m always careful what I hear

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don’t wanna know who really pulls the strings
Just as long as it’s not you or me

[Chorus:]
There’s a jackboot toe tap keeping time
While the children dance and play
Honey, if you think you’ve seen a crime
You just look the other way

[Verse:]
I slowly carve my soul away
Piece by piece I sacrifice
To comfort and peace of mind
I keep my toes on the party line
There’s nothing wrong dear, don’t think twice

[Pre-Chorus:]
I don’t wanna know who really pulls the strings
Just as long as it’s not you or me

[Chorus 2x:]
There’s a jackboot toe tap keeping time
While the children dance and play
Honey, if you think you’ve seen a crime
Won't you look the other way

[Instrumental bridge:]

[Chorus 2x:]
There’s a jackboot toe tap keeping time
While the children dance and play
Honey, if you think you’ve seen a crime
Won't you look the other way

[Outro:]
I drug my heart with doublespeak
All my misgivings disappear
It helps to keep my conscience clean
(The ends will justify the means,)
But still I’m always careful what I hear
