Test of our Democracy
Test of our Democracy
click below to listen and TURN IT UP!!!
Featuring Travis Dickerson (production, keys) and Lindy Dickerson (guitar)
Copyright 2018 Camille Brightsmith all rights reserved
This is a test
To see what feelings we have left
Are we weary of responsibility?
Children in camps
Their faces smeared, bodies limp
This is a test of our democracy
This is a test
Of the American machine
Tune in to the huddled masses
Now, on your computer screen
Children in cages
Begging while their mothers scream
This is a test of our democracy
This is a test
The salt is wet, the blood is fresh
This is only a test, only a test
This is a test
This is only a test
This is a test of our democracy
This is a test
As we sit safely in our nest
Preparing dinner for our children
As though nothing is amiss
This is a test
Asking God to bless our food
Choking down the ugly truth
Quickly turning off the news
This is a test
The salt is wet, the blood is fresh
This is only a test, only a test
This is a test
This is only a test
This is a test of our democracy
