Defining Identity

Lyrics

They say every photograph steals a portion of your soul But is it even possible todefinesuch a thing Whenthe foundation of all we know Isbased on what others have imposed Cleaned and pressed and ironed into our minds In poor taste In fetid desire We absorb all we hear and see Without regard for what those outside our circle believe And when we are challenged We decline And fall back on denial Only to re-examine And put our own faith on trial And so we're seeing now How damaged culture is And so we're feeling now Our own rebirth begin And now we've begun to see How damaged our culture is And now we've begun to feel Our own rebirth begin Don't give up Don't give in Don't surrender your sense of self Your individuality defines you Your identity survives you Your words Your actions Your tastes Your choices You will become dreams You will become memories
