Committing The Truth

(album: 24 Hour Roadside Resistance - 2000)

Just keep your mouth shut
And don't you try to obstruct us
Your act of conscience protects
Everyone but now you've lost our trust
And now you're a target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!

I heard you commit the truth
And we'll deny and we'll dispute it
Your integrity protects us all
But in this institute it
Just serves to make you a target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!

Cause when you speak out you will receive no praise
And you will be blacklisted for the lives that you've saved
Cause when you signed up all your rights were waved
We'll demote, harass, dismiss and intimidate

We know that it's our fault
But you've brought production to a halt
So crawl back home and lick your wounds
And we'll make sure to pack them full of salt
You're just a target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!

Hide this catastrophe
We own the images that you see
There's nothing that you can do
The laws protect the industries
And now you're just a fucking target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!

When you speak out you will receive no praise
And you will be blacklisted for the lives that you've saved
Cause when you signed up all your rights were waved
We'll demote, harass, dismiss and intimidate

Fuck you!

Just keep your mouth shut
And don't you try to obstruct us
Your act of conscience protects
Everyone but now you've lost our trust
And now you're a target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!

I heard you commit the truth
And we'll deny and we'll dispute it
Your integrity protects us all
But in this institute it
Just serves to make you a target for us
Whistleblower, you're a whistleblower!
Whistleblower!
