Brian Andrew Marek - Guilty Conscience Lyrics

Throw a fit and raise a stink
Tell me what you really think
No quiet truces could match the abuses
Of internal doubt, would you please drown them out
Throw me up against a wall
Tell me I'm no good at all
I get suspicious when people aren't vicious
I savage my pride by myself from inside

My guilty conscience is getting obnoxious
I cannot live up to its deep demands
I pledge defiance to puritan science
And to the republic for which it stands

Shake me up and put me down
Throw me in the sea to drown
If that would bore you, I could do it for you
But once it's begun, it's already been done
Show the error of my ways
Ad infinitum for days
You prefer silence while I see the violence
That I want and need; if you care, make me bleed
