wrists
cuffed too tightly
locked in place
unattended
condemned to rot
order resumes
cash will flow
in your absence
where does it say
you get to choose
who should live
and who should die
cascading cycle of woe

Pill of Apathy
03:51
|

|
sounds dissipate
in static
signal fading
connection lost
gone
forced to submit to your loathing
liar
the swallowed pill of apathy
still lingering inside of me
your stories told of cities burned
omitted what existed first
somewhere in cruel intent to keep
the bloodstains out of history
we fell under the pull of greed
that praises wealth, not ones in need

no more
seeking refuge in denial
you have what you have
until you don't
you love what you love
until it won't
triggered by silence
how in reverse we'll move
sometime meant never
the permanence of grief
life lines redrawn
in mourning of
scattered segments
left to fade again
you have what you have
until you don't
echoes take their place
shocked into vision
the moment you left earth

Omit

do you truly believe in what you are doing?
an abettor from upstairs warrants you
a loaded gun and prevalence
choke on it
cast your overt lies
with wealth devised to ascend
gods amongst citizens
waiting to be lost in sentiment
distorted by illusions of righteousness
psychic torment
the one who kidnaps your pride cannot amend
too many victims endure this theft

Vanna's Call
01:17
|
|||
|
seeking catharsis
from the burden of your grief
unyielding desire
for a semblance of solace
she found you
a mangled mass
permanent (too young to know)
solution (too young to care)
the last exhale
ethereal silence
fate sealed
far quicker than most
before
you saw the worst
unveil itself
constant spiral

To the Glass

what can i do to stop it now?
fraught with guilt, overwhelming doubt
what can i do to slow it down?
when it's always been around
balled yarn tangled up
cut it out
move along
never felt
too far
never fell
too hard
and when there's no one else
who will you blame?
i can feel it falling through
then you look to me
blue in the face, blood in the eyes
and you see straight through
like i'm not even there
i wish i never was

no praise
for a finger raised
no praise
for a debt long unpaid
still, our good intentions don't negate
the reality upheld
it's happening all over again
i've been condemning the complicit
avoiding those on mute
i've zoomed out to see the scars
but i've been holding the shovel
grow, keep growing toward
the indifferent light
like branches on an ailing tree
struggling to feed in the shadows of taller green
this match was rigged
raise the question
how did we become silent?
how did we become content?
listen and reflect
speak up, not over
so i refuse to sow the seeds
in soil stripped of equity
i'll rip out every brick i laid
but unknowing i took part all the same
if i'm so far removed from this
but i still benefit
then what separates me?
