Better To Know - The Indelicates

I saw my revolution sold to a priest

I saw the men of reason bow down to the east

And oh, it’s better to know

Oh, it’s better to know

The truth can make you bitter

Even while it sets you free

The truth’s a hauting daunting mistress

She ain’t been good to me

And oh, it’s better to know

Oh, it’s better to know

Despite all the fools and liars

Despite all of the wars

The puruit of liberty is

Still a noble cause

And oh, it’s better to know

Oh, I swear it’s better to know

All the forces of distortion

All the pretty words you said

The elephant in your living room

The fascist in your bed

And oh, it’s better to know

Oh, I swear it’s better to know

Even though we’re so alone

For so long

We’ve been so alone

For so long
