In Appall
~Dedicated to some verses by Otep’s Fists Fall
Made on a Sunday morning…June 30th…~
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
Resist the devil, the devil in our minds
Sell your soul to the angels behind the blinds
If you’re so kind, let’s not be left behind
Let’s lose our mind and let’s not be blind!
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
Hushed voices in prayer
We are a pretty chaos slayer
We are an outlandish obeyer…
Not a rebellious disobeyer
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
We will lift not our fist
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
If I need to, couldn’t resist!
If I should lift them up now,
You will understand somehow
That I will not be in appall
I will not fall away and stand tall
I exist with a purpose in heart, purpose in heart
Our words are meant to be spoken
We are stronger instruments, never torn apart
We are meant to be strings unbroken
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
We will lift not our fist
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
If I need to, couldn’t resist!
If I should lift them up now,
You will understand somehow
That I will not be in appall
I will not fall away and stand tall
Let our words be heard
Let the cowards inside burn
Bravery’s a liberty bird
Let the sea in our eyes churn
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
Don’t be horrified
Won’t be terrified
God is on our side
Where He abides, won’t subside
Fists in the bloodied air…
Now, we are in utter despair
Resist the devil without a care
Bow down to the angel and play fair
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
We will lift not our fist
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
If I need to, couldn’t resist!
If I should lift them up now,
You will understand somehow
That I will not be in appall
I will not fall away and stand tall
We won’t fall
Just stand tall
Through it all
Give a call
Put your fist to the wall
With a bounce of a ball
We won’t be in appall
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
We will lift not our fist
I am pacifist! Pacifist!
If I need to, couldn’t resist!
Our flames will be flared up in no time
Someday, we will rise from the ashes of our prime
We will be happier than ever sometime
It’s not a crime to be optimistic this time!
Though I’m not afraid to use my temper to injure
I’m not in the shade of your twisted little temple of sham, of the dam
Shame just came to mind even deeper
But, it’s best to heal from the scars of our souls to become God’s lamb
