"Dissident"
She nursed him there
Ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say, what to say?
But soon she was down
Soon he was low
At a quarter past, a holy no
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold
No, she folded, a dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissidence, a dissident is here
And to this day she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Like a word misplaced
Nothing said, what a waste
When she had contact with the conflict
There was meaning
But she sold him to the state
She had to turn around
When she couldn't hold
She folded, a dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissidence, a dissident is here, oh
She gave him away when she couldn't hold
No, she folded, a dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissidence, a dissident is here
Oh, couldn't hold on, she couldn't hold
No, she folded, a dissident is here
Escape is never the safest place
Oh, a dissident is here
