Dissident (Live)

She nursed him there, ooh, over a night
I wasn't so sure she wanted him to stay
What to say, what to say
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, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh a dissident, a dissident is here

To this day she's glided on
Always home but so far away
Oh, 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, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh

She gave him away
Oh, when she couldn't hold, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path
Oh, a dissident, a dissident is here, oh

Couldn't hold on
Oh, she couldn't hold on, oh, she folded
A dissident is here
Escape is never the safest path, oh
A dissident is here, oh
