about

This song might come across as the happiest angry song ever.
It's actually not an angry song at all.

Basically, if you repay hate with hate it only leads to more hate. Repaying hate with love is the only way anything could ever get better. This process is like heaping burning coals on someone's head. Eventually they'll feel like an ass and hopefully change. If they don't change they'll end up alone. Locked up Solitary Fashion. Bit of Reggae lyrical styling.

lyrics

I ask for nothing in return
Just heap these coals on your head
And let them burn
Sit back and hope that you learn
Before you're nothing but ashes
Hope soon you'll feel what the catch is

I try but the key doesn't turn
You've bolted all of your doors
Shut them firm
I left you room to discern
But now you're down to your rations
Locked up solitary fashion

We're all dying
We're one and the same
Blood runs in our veins
We're not islands
Why do we resort to violence
Kill with kindness
Love leads on to love
And hate leads to hate
So let's try this
What's there to lose but what binds us
