Caroline (for Lack of a Movement)

Caroline (for Lack of a Movement)

No man’s great: that’s all the past
There’s just statues left
There’s no cause to back,
Just crowds and mobs running in circles

When you’re watching the crime you walk on by
When they’re calling for heads you want that knife

Caroline, I thought what you said to me spread the fight
You stopped, you’re like everything: paralyzed
I thought I could move you, but never mind
I tried. Why have all you stalled?

No one stands for me
So why should I get up when no one is standing?

Say you’ll change anything, you’ll feel that wrath
If you think it’s in your hands you’ve lost your grasp

Caroline, I thought what you said to me spread the fight
You stopped, you’re like everything: paralyzed
I thought I could move you, but never mind
I tried. Why are you so calm?
That was the storm. It may not ever pass

This barricade is all we share now
Wait, don’t give your weight to feed the barrier, barrier

Caroline, I thought what you said to me spread the fight
You stopped, you’re like everything: paralyzed
I thought I could move you, but never mind
I tried. Why have all you stalled?
