Bring on the fear mongering
You opprotunist!
Why even bother to care?
Slit the throat of our parade
Our lives are yours to trade
So why even bother?
The wild card is an ace of death
Forget where you placed your head
I wouldn't bother
No don't even spill your lies
You Lord of the Flies!
Don't you bother!

Not many know but,
The storm is approaching
without rain or sleet, hail or snow
This storm shall reveal itself
As the show for shows
Blow for blow they will take it
Feeding the poor while trying to make it.
The gray feeling hangs over us all
Stare into the abyss of the fall
Tell me you dont feel anything at all!

There is a rising sense of urgency today
Because it came up from the basement yesterday
I stood on my head and counted to three
Closed my ears and hoped to be set free
I went to go watch a videotape of myself
Wishing someone would come say I'm an adult
I walk on the ocean of the rising innui
With the child of my former self floating alongside
Washing towards the island of resolution
Anyday now.

She sees the world behind tinted gray glass
Because she thought it wouldn't spin as fast
To experince anything great after the past
Wouldn't be acceptable for someone in her age class
This is what she decides to believe
To see the world in all it's glory
Would require someone who's money offers freedom
Who's in love, Someone who's fearsome.
Only,
Those who have stepped past the glass
Realize how precious this time on earth is
This is a colorful message to all pessimistic facists
Step past the glass and realize how amazing it is to be anything at all.
