I Will Not Sing a Hateful Song (Alternate Version)
We've become the outer order
Live our lives along the border
Get up in ease and face our other
To name the sign you've been born under
I was bitten by a man
Trespassing in a psychic state
What well-healed boy
What simple man
Left such a long and living wake
I will not sing a hateful song
Though it's in me to sing
I know to drink the blood is wrong
And undue error brings
Born to proud, self-conscious people
Living free of consequence
Speak strange words louder than a witness
And damn the dead in self-defense
But I was also born and raised
To always speak and listen clear
To know the last sound that I make
Could be the last sound that I hear
I will not sing a hateful song
Though it's in me to sing
I know to drink the blood is wrong
And undue error brings
Live our lives along the border
Get up in ease and face our other
To name the sign you've been born under
I was bitten by a man
Trespassing in a psychic state
What well-healed boy
What simple man
Left such a long and living wake
I will not sing a hateful song
Though it's in me to sing
I know to drink the blood is wrong
And undue error brings
Born to proud, self-conscious people
Living free of consequence
Speak strange words louder than a witness
And damn the dead in self-defense
But I was also born and raised
To always speak and listen clear
To know the last sound that I make
Could be the last sound that I hear
I will not sing a hateful song
Though it's in me to sing
I know to drink the blood is wrong
And undue error brings
