Ineffectual Intellectual

.
Sat on building blocks that had no place to be

Graffiti for forgotten ages.
human achievements
touching

Walking it's dark dank quarters
breathed in cool history

A time when life flourished
without the fear

A human mission
blood on all our hands
mass extinction

Governments
Raping the land for greed

To the lover waiting by the turnstile
(keep waiting my love)
Everyone knows how it's going down

Not quite the higher intellectual
when being ineffectual

Speak wagging finger dialect
deaf to the rhetoric
seeing the arguments for change
when price be too great
but we will do fuck all but exterminate

Everyone knows how it's going down
