Nora Self - Tolerate Lyrics

Good morning, good to see you
Been waiting for you to come home
I'm sorry to intrude
But nobody thinks you should leave
Your dog behind demanding sympathy
We got enough around here

We beg you just to keep your matters to yourself
Can't work too hard on being tolerant, my friend
Unless we all sign up for mind transplants

I have a place for you in my heart
But it's gonna cost you a brand new start
A brand new start, a brand new start, a brand new

We're waiting, we're waiting
We're waiting for you to come home
I'm sorry to intrude
But who the hell told you to leave
Your dog behind begging for sympathy
I got enough on me

I beg you take your bloody matters to yourself
I'm sick and tired of being tolerant
I need a mind transplant
(Or maybe just a bit of drama to stir things up)

I'll see you again two weeks from now
Then you can tell me what that's about
What that's about, what that's about
What's all that aaaaaa-aaaaa

All this virtue, all this lying
All this killing, all this hate
Adding glamour to the plots that
We fabricate, fabricate
Every enemy of Progress
Is an enemy of the State, of the State, of the State
State, State, State, State
State, State, State, State
State, State

And I'm sinking, and I'm swimming
And I'm sinking in again
And the tides will keep on pulling us, my friend
Till we give in to the waves and let them
Drag us to our sweet or bitter ends
Got the ceiling, got the rope, got office space
And this world's a heavy wall I just can't shake
But you know what good old doctors say
"It's best let small doses accumulate"

We're the victims of the crimes we perpetrate
We're the sellers of the lies we execrate
We're the buyers of the poisons on our plate
We let them tell us who to hate

All this virtue, all this lying
All this killing, all this hate
So much more than we could ask ourselves
To tolerate, tolerate, tolerate, tolerate
Tolerate, tolerate, tolerate, tolerate
