You found, the loose knot in society
We are trapped, bearing the wrong arms
Using the incorrect level of tone
Attacking with the wrong finger
Intelligent ears are fearful of what we may come to know
What will you do now?
The television is glorifying murder and sex
So many ungodly things, rape your head savagely
An animal, pouncing from the shadows
Our youth has forgotten about Marco Polo and fireflies
They are the Puppeteer's bitch
They are feeling each other up, while the mother's are getting stoned
We've kept the T.V. on, to watch and to learn
There is a tidal wave of waste holding you hostage at
your threshold
And you have kept your hellfire blood silent for this long
Kill the muse,
and
let's take a look at what we've done
Nothing.
The government is spending billions on a war that will never end
We are all terrorists, for all they care
And they'd bomb us right down to our knees and
the foundations of our houses if it
means
money in the federal reserve bank
And you can bank on this:
it's going to hit home, someday
Death is going to get too close and
our pockets are already going to be empty and
then there will be no use for the American idealisms
Freedom will be a fond memory.
You mark my words, our children's children will feel the heaviest bond of
corporate slavery
And they will build forts on our graves and build tyranny out
of our headstones
And we won't know what has hit us until we realize our wrists have been
chained to their kennel fence
Like dogs.
Like insolent pigs.
