we whisper
we scream
we whisper
we scream
the weight of our words are heavy
regardless the method of which we exert them.

my heart is beating a deadbeat to the groove of society
it is a hideous conformity i do not see fit.
everybody is living in a black and white world
and it is the ones who see grey who suffer
like the nether man who lives on the other side of
expected mentality.

they know what our minds are worth
if we merge together
as one,
the ones who promise change
are most afraid of change,
because the ones who control
will never be controlled;
we are forever, in the dark of their shadows
as they loom over us in the masks
of skyscrapers, billboards, television, plastic -
fucking plastic.

so everybody is a working mechanism,
they work to survive
they buy to survive
they consume to survive
we. they. we. they.
the braver hypocrites might say they work to rebel,
"at the end of the line".

it is an anger i cannot pinpoint a target for;
are the leaders at fault for the oppressive tone of life
or are the masses at fault for having fallen into its stupor,
fuelling the morphine into their own minds?

i pledge allegiance to nothing.

War! War! War!

Bombs dropping out of control
Protesters singing from far far away
Tanks deciding futures, wars at sea
Obey solider obey, Reagan is here
What's unity without isolation
Tyranny is a bureaucracy of sorts
Anxiety running rapid, stop it!!
Covert genocide said the populist
Conform I said or pay the price
look at the sky, who do you see?
A culture at war for reasons unidentified
constructing views based on what?
What's the price for praising Dracula?
Ravens flying through the sky looking
for the next victim sure to drop any second
New world order!
Psychosis kneel request for reform
Listen to me, think twice before you speak

I'm God! said Oppenheimer

No eating pies while on the boat
Remarkable advancements in a worthless
world gone haywire, acrid and flimsy
the glamorous life, no milk involved
We're at war, have you heard that?
Utter disgust, maybe a need for expansion
Don't waste my time I'm comfortable
I don't want war but I guess someone has to
Painting on my canvas godly imperfections
Dogs bark and that's a certainty
The oceans filled with blood that's probable
Wobble, hit the floor, who really cares?
Confusion is the ugliest of circumstances
Cough, Cough
Knowledge rules supreme
Love. This year we decorate and try.
